Wish these were available when I was building my engine. Has anyone here installed one?
https://csfrace.com/world-exclusive-csf-por...ne-oil-coolers/We use that brand for replacement coolers. Generally good luck but had a front mount cooler leak on a 911. We had to pay to ship the car from TN back to us then ship it back to TN after we replaced the warranted cooler. All the labor was also on us. Had to eat $3K. My suggestion would be to pressure test the cooler before it goes in the car. We do now. Lesson learned. Are
I worked for an oul cooler company for 27 years.
Every cooler was tesyed a twice working pressure.
The customer should not have to yest they. Those are oven brazed and can have flaws in the braze joints
I agree we should expect them to be perfect but reality say trust but verify. It wouldn’t have been such a bitter pill to swallow if we didn’t have to pay to ship the car back and forth. We had done a lot to the car and I personally drove it 200 miles before the customer picked it up. He made it halfway home to TN before he saw a drip from the cooler. We figured a fitting might need a quarter turn but it was a failing cooler. We got a new cooler for the car but like most parts, the warranty just covers the part, not labor or other expenses.
