Jumbulias - did you get the oil cooler installed? I have a 75 Z1 with Mr. Turbo installed, and wanted to add an oil cooler since my bike runs pretty hot.  
OIl coolers are easy to install. How about some pictures of your Turbo Bike

Hello  The bike is next on the list. I have been cleaning out the barn. Getting all the parts together  for the build. Bike is  all apart at the moment.  I will be posting  pics as I progress. I know this is longest build in kzrider history.  Had a few setbacks with my health. But I'm  back!!

Got a little done today. Oil cooler and fittings installed. Went ahead and degree cams per Dale Walker cam degree dvd. I spread them at 108/112 . Found old email from Larry Cavanaugh. That's what he told me to set it at.

Awesome build. I still have a Dale Walker electric shifter on my KZ. Got to give him a plug. He's a legend.

Been refinishing  front shocks today. Using a walter 2 in 1 flap disk. Going to spray with satin clear coat. And put new dust boots on. Should look pretty  good when done.

Looking great :) could you mount the cooler with the hoses at the top do it doesn't "drain back" when not running ?

The hoses are higher than the oil cooler, hopefully it will not drain back to engine when not running
