GSXR 1000 oil intercooler conversion
cloudy - 5/9/11 at 07:23 PM

I'm trying to convert my GSXR1000 K1 engine to be oil cooled by intercooling with the water instead of a seperate oil cooler.

I have an intercooler from a GSXR 600, but the central bolt obviously is incorrect. One end is the correct M20x1.0 that will take the HF138 oil filter, but I then need a M20x1.0 female the other end. Any idea where I can get hold of one or am I going to have to make something up?

Most folk who put gsxr1000 engines into gsxr600 bikes also swap over the oil cooler.

But I guess you can google at least as well as I can!

Think i'll just have to go for it, annoyingly you can't unscrew the adapter from the engine side so it'll have to be a female end which may not fit in the cooler.... Have to see!
