Anyone noticed that CB performance sells replacement T-4 oil coolers for half the price as everyone else? Does anyone have any experience with them? Are they OEM or ???

This is from CB.
Our type 4 oil coolers are manufactured by N and L Manufacturing Company. They supply OEMs with radiators and heat exchanges. So who makes the OEM coolers sold today? And are they new or refurb?? |

I wonder if these ones are any good?
I also wonder what Pelican sells. If OEM is NLA they must be srcing them from somewhere else. |

We are questioning the source of the "new" 911 coolers also... could be BULLSHIT.

I was hoping to hear from you on this Brad. I am tempted to try the CB one out. It's $60-$80 less than everyone else.

Buy it. Bring it over when you get it in the mail. I'll compare the welds from a used one with the new one.

If they are re-conditioned, I would be worried about any gunk left inside. Even with ultrasonic cleaning etc...Some of these parts are just too damn old.
Maybe its time to go external cooler. dr |
