Leak point?

I would not look at it that.

I look at it the following way. You would have to plug the LQ9 cooler lines, so why not going ahead run the cooler lines. The cost difference might be not be much. That kind of cost would not be worth considering till you actual saw the dollar amount.

RedXRay

You have made a better response here, but still has issues.

Answer my questions:

1. What 07 truck? You say "HD." What truck are those an option on? You need to say that.
2. What year factory rad was you using? You didnt say.
3. Oil cooler block off plate? What? Plate? How much did that cost versus just running the lines? That whole plate garbage talk is a bunch of manure as it appears. Why you might ask? Because your holding that it seems as a hostage outlook to make a case for your outlook. Why?
4. Why no pics of the Tru Cool 40K cooler?

A brief search of Rockauto finds this. https://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog/...+assembly,2181 You don't need to be spoon-fed.

3. Oil cooler block off plate? What? Plate? How much did that cost
A brief lmgtfy search of the entire internet finds various things like this. https://www.ebay.com/itm/293886993806 (if you don't know what lmgtfy is, I'll be happy to demostrate) EVERY Gen 3 or 4 LSx motor that I know of that doesn't have an oil cooler, has this instead. Certainly all the trucks.

The "leak point" in question is the factory oil cooler lines; well and widely and frequently known to leak at the crimped fittings.

Before getting all high and mighty about your righteous indignation, might want to first find out WHAT THE HELL YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT. As someone much wiser and more famous than me once said, "it is better to merely be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt".

Lmgtfy is the ****! But they changed their site recently and it's not as.... blatantly inciting as it used to be and therefore I think it's advantage to the Burn Unit has been diminished

Still great **** tho

I didn't see anyone start anything with you. I just saw you use incomplete, borderline incoherent language: yet we still helped you. Everyone here provided you the answers you were looking for. Sometimes more than once even!

it wasn't until you wanted your hand held and guided to your tools before we were like "ok bro, at some point you're just too stupid to help"

we hit that point. So, see ya later on

Now that I know you're just a troublemaker and a lazy entitled idiot that has no business even being here, I'll ignore you next time.

Do your own Internet research the hard way... lmgtfy.

Im not here to diss on people. This is not boxing ring or a athletic competition. If it was, Im afraid you have no idea who your talking too.

I dont know you. I will just be nice to you. What else should you do?

Concerning being spoon fed. Im not asking that. I already have alot of information. However, alot of information does not line up from company to company and site and site. Hence, Im asking in a forum where people will know more than I do.

Im a old school guy. I work on chevelles mostly. I have a LS in a truck, that Im trying fix up a little.

Leak point and block off plate. I dont know much of that and have never heard of those things.

Plating is not a good term to mix in with automotive. At least to me. Sounds to much like a dietary comments. I will leave that there.

Why are you going to righteous indignation? Are you talking Jesus being upset with people for selling in the Temple?

Who said that quote?
