    look what maeke the cooler si mocal come in different tread sizes, being a japaneese one id imagein it would not be a BSP more like a UNF perhaps.

    only you will know really.

    as for a plate, you need a thermostatic sandwich plate, as you said, this will mot liley have 1/2 or 3/4 BSP fitting.

    but as we dont know spec on the oil cooler you may have to get some custom lines made up.

    it depends where you mount it for hose lengths ect

    best bet is find a good spot and measure and make the hoses yourself its all i did
