If I were to do it over again I would just buy it new. I got my oil cooler for 350 then spent about 160 on new lines/fittings. Im still coming in under what a 25 row would cost with setrab/thermostat but, I would have gladly paid the extra $60-70 to have an oil cooler that was just one and done. When you are buying these things new you have to consider that there are rubber gaskets everywhere so when you unscrew it the gasket no longer seals correctly, add into the high oil pressures these things see and its easy to see why its leaking. If you are going used I recommend you buy new gaskets for everything including the sandwich plate.
