Well, I started to get a new decent size oil leak onto the left header.
Traced to crack in round edge of oil cooler, not the welds. This is the cooler from NLA Parts which is less than 3 years old. This is a stock photo, mine is not out of the car yet. Anybody had problems in this area? ![]() |

I think these reproduction coolers are made in China. I was on the fence getting one but sourced a good BHER OEM cooler and had it cleaned and tested. I still have my orig cooler but it has a pin hole leak. I will contact the oil cooler link to see if it can be repaired. Would be nice to have a spare.
There are a few on eBay at various prices and conditions. Patrick Motorsports does a BHER 911 cooler conversion mod using a different oil line with AN 16 fitting welded on. This is what my six is currently running. I plan on dropping the engine soon to replace it with the correct six cooler and line soon. |
