I picked up a replacement oil cooler from Crazy Ray's in MD today. Now I just need to order some new lines because one of mine is damaged.

My current oil cooler has been like this since I got the car last April. I don't know what exactly happened to it. I haven't actually had any problems with it yet, except for its appearance.

 

that old oil cooler looks pretty nasty....

 

did you notice your engine temp running higher with the bent cooler?

 

Since I put a Flex-a-lite blackmagic fan in there my engine temp has never gone past half-way on the temp gauge. Even before that it only started to climb past half-way once, when my old electric fan died while stuck in traffic. In that case I got the car on the shoulder and off before it got too hot.

As far as I can tell the old cooler has been working fine, despite it's obvious damage.
