I've seen a couple built 350s that spent all this money on their build, but wouldn't budge for a $500 oil cooler kit. Eventually they ended up spinning a rod bearing. That's the easy out way. Worst case, you snap a rod, disintegrate a piston and need a whole new block because you have a hole the size of an apple.

It's not worth it to run without one.


Thats what I am trying to get at people that have one already, and would need a full kit minus the oil cooler.

The 350's at least had a factory oil cooler it was air to water one though better than nothing.

They didn't run as hot as the 370's because of this
