oil cooler
I'm swapping a 305 TBI for a 350 TPI do I actually need the oil cooler?
I don't have the radiator from the donor car.
And if I done, do I need the machinist doing the block, do anything different to it so everything will work right? It is bored .30 over now.
thanks a bunch

Re: oil cooler
You could leave it off if you want, there are no differences to the block. There were hundreds of thousands more 350s made without an oil cooler than with one.
