Craig, do it on the cheap mate - I got an oil cooler kit from a Toyota Starlet on eBay for £35 - all you then need to do is buy a new sandwich plate for the zetec (around £30 from various online shops) and you're sorted.

It's way cheaper to buy a 'kit' for another car that already includes a cooler and pipes and then just buy the sandwich plate that you need separately - zetec oil cooler kits are fairly rare, the only 'important' bit is the sandwich plate.

Oil coolers not recommended on zetec, low oil temp = knackered big ends.

Get a one off a st170, it fits behind the filter and uses coolant to control the temp.
