Anyone bought a new oil cooler that had something rattle in it?
Purchased a new oil cooler for my 502, noticed it has some sort of debris in it that is rattling inside. I've pulled all the plugs, and blew air through, can't seem to get it out. Not sure if it's in the power steering circuit or oil circuit, but don't think I want to run it............. Anyone seen/heard this before?

If you can't verify what it is, it's not worth the chance.
I had a brand new over the GM counter 5.7L truck engine that had a head not drilled/tapped for spark plugs. No schit !
Things happen, as much as we hate them too.

Try flushing it from each port with a garden hose hooked up to it. Water > air

Sent it back. Manufacturer took a look at it, and said that it probably is a piece of braze in between the cooler tubes and would never come out. I stated i'm not comfortable installing this on my boat. I requested another be built and sent to me that was not contaminated. Sounds like that's the new plan now.
I'm curious, anyone here have a customer cooler built before? If so, who did you use?
