I ran som AN lines for oil and powersteering to an oil cooler. What product would you recomend using to seal the pipe thread adapters. Obviously teflon tape and oil dont have a long happy life together. Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Thanks!

get yourself a can of Highside LeakLock
Leak Lock is a state-of-the-art high strength, pipe joint sealant consisting of chemically resistant film formers, plasticers, reinforcing fillers and solvents .
A resin based brushable paste which remains permanently flexible, adheres to internal surfaces and fills voids
Ideal for metal and plastic materials subject to extreme vibrations
Effective in temperatures from -200ƒF (-93ƒC) to 400ƒF (204ƒC), full vacuums and pressures to 10,000 PSI
Leak Lock can be used on all metal or plastic materials, including but not limited to, aluminum, aluminum alloys, cast irons, copper, copper alloys, (brass, bronze, etc...), magnesium and magnesium alloys, carbon steels, stainless steels, galvanized surfaces, PVC, CPVC, ABS, fiberglass, black polypropylene, and kynar.
