I originally went with the Mocal core. I spoke with Z1 this morning and they are going to try to get me a warranty refund on it, but I purchased it 12 months and 2 weeks ago so I might have just missed the window. According to Russ, the Mocal core and the VHR don't play well together because there is an oil pressure spike at startup that puts a lot of strain on the cooler. He was surprised that this one lasted me as long as it did. So I have a Setrab core on order and hopefully I won't have to deal with this ever again. Of course the leak appeared when I was 200 miles from home - scariest drive home I've ever had! I must've pulled over 12 times to check the oil level and to see how bad it was leaking. In hindsight I should've just had it towed home because by the end the oil was getting really close to my brake rotor. Never going to do that again...
