to me this sounds like it's just the cooler core, in order to hook it up you are going to need an adapter that goes on the block where the oil filter screws onto (either a sandwich, or relocator type) its also recomended to use a thermostat so the oil doesn't get over cooled, as well as the lines between all the componets in the system. I pieced together my own kit last year, and between buying all the parts, and many trips back and forth to the store for fittings, and hoses etc. I would have just spent the $$ on a kit, like Greddy makes (would have spent a little more, but having all the componets in one shot would have been worth the extra $$)

also I had to remove the tube the oil filter screws onto and machine about 1/4" off of it cause the adapted didn't mate up to the block correctly... hope this helps...

duh... should have read closer... you even said its just the core...
