WTB: 90+ oil cooler lines I can have rebuilt.
Anybody have a set lying around I could buy/borrow?
If the price is right I will send you back a rebuilt set as a part of the deal.

I did call 928Int'l. Greg Brown scooped all of them up.

Totally different - the oil cooler is external and located beneath the radiator.

If I start putting Greg's quality parts on my car where does it end? It will end up looking like Alan's El Guappo :-).

Those oil cooler lines are hard to get....and even harder to get the cores back.
People think they have to keep their original oil lines, for some reason.
I've bought every core set I can get my hands on....and I still only have one set of ends to make new lines from.
It's such a problem, I now will only send out a replacement set, once I have the originals in my hands.

Air only coolers aren't any good in traffic. (Zey are for zee autobahn, ya?)

Not their best idea for anywhere there is traffic.
I'm going to guess that some engineer figured out that the radiator was reaching the limit of its ability to remove thermal load, under certain conditions, and felt it necessary to remove the oil cooler from the radiator.
Why they didn't add a fan for the oil cooler, like the same vintage 964s had, I'll never understand.
That's actually a great product for some person handy with patterns and fiberglass....a duct to the cooler, a fan at the opening of the duct, and a thermo switch to turn the fan on.

Had my go to shop for rebuilding A/C lines rebuild the oil cooler lines. These will outlast the car.

I actually have a good set but would rather have a set of the black braided lines....

It's the black braided ones that are leaking.
