I just had a z1 oil cooler kit with the 34 row Setrab core installed in mine. Everything was tightened down but there was a leak coming from the flange that connects the line to the core where it screws into the core. So my mechanic used teflon tape on all the flanges and it works fine now. I was told those o-rings will give out after awhile and adding teflon tape will make it last longer. I was disappointed that the flanges leaked at all considering the price of the kit.
