    You will find it's life will be short lived if you try to turn it into a chiller. The designs are different. Even the thermostat likely won't go up to 4 degrees.

    You would be better off just buying something that's designed as a chiller.
    Okay, that's good advice. The oil flow and returns are gravity based so needs to be level. Thermostat issue is also good advice. Maybe i need a upright fridge. Ill keep looking into it.
