I am trying to restore my 89 Formula 350 And there are a few things I cant find first off is they discontinued making the engine oil cooler lines anyone know were to get one and the other things are a rear bumper cover and the rear tailight assembly.If I am posting in the wrong section Please let me know I am new to this forum.By the Way HAPPY NEW YEAR ALL and Thank You.

 

Check out the Virtual Junkyard on this site (TGO), listed down near the bottom. They are just starting up, but have been endorsed by the TGO board. I just received some parts for my 89 Formula.

Thank You I will try them It has been real hard to find that engine oil cooler line I was told you don't need to run it that you can by-pass it I want to know if that is really true also.Also why can't I post under parts needed and under the junk yard site?

 

You may want to post that question of bypass in the tech/general engine forum. I believe it's water that runs through the line, actually an oil warmer?

You won't be able to post in the classifieds until some X number of posts. Look around in the site suggestions/comments forum.

 

Not sure if this question ever got answered, but yes, you can dump those oil cooler lines and bypass it. You basically just get the adapter for the oil filter mount area so you can screw a filter right to the block instead of that oil cooler thing. I did it when I built my motor...should be able to ask any machine shop in your area and they should know what you are talking about and be able to locate one for you.

 

My oil cooler hasnt been on for 10 years. You'll also have more room 4 a
PF35L(old school number) or PF1218 oil filter.
