The guy in the ebay add will ship to the states........and that is a buy it now price.

Re-using oil coolers is difficult as the threads that the nuts screw onto to fix them to the cooling plate sometimes strip (they are a very fine thread).

Yea, already talked to them- will ship for $30- so that's even cheaper than the guy that beat me on E-bay the other day:-) By the way- wasn't that you contourbs that was bidding on it? I checked the prices in Germany as well- they are about the same. So good,it's nice to have many options. I'm so tired of work- 2 more hours til the weekend and 'll be finally able to fix the car.

Hey guys, sorry I took so long, but the holidays are finally over:-) HAPPY NEW YEAR!:-) Anyway- here's the link with my oil cooler repair photos finally.

I ordered the oil cooler and guess what they sent me- the transmission cooler!!! Even after I told the guy 50 times specifically, it's NOT the transmission cooler, it's located between the heads, under the intake, it's very small and described him the part in details. Anyway, I'm guess I'll just order the one from UK- the total for that one is $170 with shipping. Hey contourbs, I know you paid $220 for yours, but that one is the cheapest one so far, I guess you'd want to keep yours for $160, right? let me know. thanks

Yeah... most people think that it's blown head gaskets when it's not... I see so many Cateras for sale that say "Has blown head gaskets". Heck I could have picked up 5 or 6 Cateras with "blown head gaskets" for under $1000 each, but at the time I didn't know about the oil coolers.

GM Discount Parts has it listed for 204$ online price... shipping would probably not put it any more then 15-20$ over that price...

There was a place in IL that had a ton of them and were selling them at a steal deal of 150-ish, thats where I got mine, but then they moved and now I dont know where they are...
