Nothing is wrong with the stock oil cooler.
In the last couple of weeks, I had read multiple posts about folks having to replace or repair thier cooler and/or factory lines because of galling threads and siezed fittings. This method would save having to purchase the expensive Benz lines or finding a used replacement cooler.
The engine is being installed in a Toyota 4Runner.
