Re: Any one running a fuel cooler?
i am actually running one, its just a trans cooler though, using it for fuel, during the summer i'd be cruising and all of a sudden my truck would die, well the heat would cause a vapor lock in between the fuel pressure regulator and carb (i have no clue why) so i had to have a flat head in the glove comp to get out and bleed the fuel system, well i threw this on there to see if it helped and i never had the problem again!

Re: Any one running a fuel cooler?
I thought of one. Instead I bent the fuel line away from any heat source. I can easily fit one.

Re: Any one running a fuel cooler?
The "can" design was intended to be filled with ice. I used one on my 69 Chevelle for drag raceing. For street use just use the finned little radiators designed for this purpose.
