Wanted : 2 Oil coolers
anybody out there have two of these laying around known to be good they would want to part with? Before I buy new ones. These pressure tested ok but I really just don’t trust them and want to start fresh so to speak when my engines get done.
thanks!

I would buy new if it were me, just to reassure myself that I'm not going to have isues with leaky used coolers.

I agree with above, I would not buy a used engine oil cooler unless you personally know the history from new. Beyond leaks they can hide bits of metal from a previous incident and a sonic clean is about the only way to make sure that there is nothing hiding in the cooler.

Right.
Yall are right! I will do what’s right and purchase two new ones that why I know for certain and don’t ever have to guess it. I guess I was hoping by sheer luck somebody would have two new ones they never used lol!

I've got 2 cools but neither are like the ones in your pic
Changed mine 3 times because I needed a larger cooler to reduce the heat after repower. One is small n=maybe 6 inch long, the other is about 2 inch diameter by 16 or so, would have to measure
