Question Van's EA OIL COOLER II

I'm trying to determine the manufacturer of the Van's EA OIL COOLER II listed on their website for an application other then a Lycoming.

http://www.vansaircraft.com/cgi-bin/...t=sw-oilcooler

EA OIL COOLER II
Traditional Harrison/Stewart Warner style oil cooler. PMA'd. Seven tube style suitable for either O-320, O-360 and IO-360
Size 8 1/4" x 4 1/2" x 3 5/8". Weight 1.94 lbs. 3/8" NPT ports
Price: $185

The oil cooler currently being recommended for my application is the Aero Classics #8000075 Size 8.14" wide x 4.52" high x 3.62" deep with 7 plates. Weight: 1.74 lbs.

They seem to be the same based on descriptions, but I'd like to know for sure. Can anyone help?

I just looked at the one I got in my Van's FWF kit about 4 years ago. It is an Aero Classic 8000075.

Roberta,

I sent an email to Van's last night to verify that the oil cooler is still manufactured by Aero Classics. As soon as I hear back from them I'll let everyone know what I find. If it is an Aero Classics 8000075, it is the best price around!
