Factory Oil Cooler??? I was wondering where i could find a factory oil cooler for my 95 z....i have seen some on ebay but noone can say for sure if they came off an lt1 from a camaro..i dont really wanna spend 150-200 on an aftermarket oil cooler...mine wont work cause i spun the bearing and it has all sorts of metal shavings in it and as far as i can see there is no way to clean the fins that run the coolant through. anyone know where to pick one up.

Mine got clogged up with metal from 2 spun rod bearings. I went 397 and took the damn thing off and haven't seen any negative effects. One positive is that you can put a taller oil filter on if you remove the cooler.
