Subject: Re: Disaster - Engine seized. by bearcat on 2012/12/6 0:00:00 I am sorry to hear about all of your troubles. But what I would prefer to see in the case of an oil cooler is some really good AN-fittings and hard lines whenever possible. You want to really make it fool proof. I had an oil cooler on my 427 also, but ended up taking it off because it was cooling my engine too much. I had a really large custom radiator that more than did the job. If you need better cooling, maybe consider a better radiator and forget about the oil cooler. Because what you've experienced is the old rule of thumb that if you increase complexity, you also add another variable that can go wrong. Anyway, good luck putting your Vette back together. |
