(IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) (never thought I would say that) After its all said an done you might as well get a new one. I would feel better knowing that my freshly rebuilt motor is being cooled by a NEW, RELIABLE, oil cooler, not an old, unknown condition, and after its done modified oil cooler...but what do I know??

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) LOL - i beg to differ tho, albeit you make good points... depends on the NEW cooler you purchase.... but RX7 coolers are as cheap as 20-40 bucks on ebay. figure another 20 for the threaded bungs you weld in and 50-150 bucks to have it cut/welded/sonicleaned..... I have an rx7 cooler here somewhere... nice piece. i ended up using a setrab that i got a killer deal on... how is it different than re-using the engine mounted cooler on a /6 or a /4?? and i bet you didnt have yours ultra sonic cleaned when you rebuilt your last motor (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |
