thanks,
JED971959, thanks, I will try the Astro van inlet if I can't get my welds to stop leaking. As far as the oil line, I don't know about any check valve. Is you oil filter remote like mine?.... under the radiator. Did you plug off the lines going to the oil cooler/ radiator? Mine had 1/2" diameter hard lines going from the oil filter to the old radiator. Since my new radiator does not have these connections, I bought an external oil cooler, that I now need to splice into the lines. I ordered a 'compression fitting to barb fitting' online. So hopefully in a week or so, I will have it connected.
