Factory oil cooler question
Hey Ya'll, I'm installing a factory oil cooler on my "tree-80-tree" and my question is this - Should there be a gasket of some type ( paper ? ) where
the cooler assembly mates to the block? I'm not talking about the round
rubber sealing ring that looks like an oil filter seal. If a gasket is needed,
would a RTV type sealant be O/K ? Thanx Ya'll in advance for your help.
The secret of life is honesty and fair-dealing.
If you can fake that,you've got it made !

Yup. Just the big o-ring.
battman - where'd you get the rims on your 2000? I'm looking for some aftermarkets for my 2K.
