Cm870 oil coolers

[Rawze]

Not sure about your own personal experiences much.. but PAI has a record around here is being complete sh$it!.

Seen plenty of their crank shaft dampers have been shown to often fail after 1 or 2 years and/or crack, their overhaul kits are absolutely garbage and ya gotta plasti-gauge every bearing because the tolerances are all over the place, , etc.. so I would not recommend their other products at all to anyone for anything at this point.

AND SOMEONE WHO WANTS TO PUT AN AFTERMARKET OIL COOLER.. WHICH IS CONSIDERED ONE OF THE COMPONENTS THAT IF IT IS NOT TO SPEC, ITS THERMAL EFFICIENCY COULD POTENTIALLY NOT BE AS GOOD, OR IT HAS OTHER ISSUES DOWN THE ROAD.. .. OR CAN POTENTIALLY CAUSE CATASTROPHIC ENGINE DAMAGE, OIL TEMP PROBLEMS, ETC.. INTO YOUR ENGINE IS JUST A BAD DECISION IN MY BOOK.. but that is simply my own opinion, so take it with a grain of salt.

MOST ALL OF THESE TYPES OF CHEAPER/AFTERMARKET PARTS TO SAVE A FEW $$$ IS THE SAME AS JUMPING OVER A DOLLAR TO SAVE A DIME!.

the next question is .. why did the original one fail to begin with?... what failed?.. seals?.. or from corrosion due to lack of proper coolant care? .. or something else?. and has it failed prematurely?... or because it has a lot of age on it?.. how long did it last?.
