When Oil Coolers Go Bad!!!

[Wizard]

While some of you are out racking up points on rockfish and Yellowtail, most know I blew an oil cooler on my motor and turned my winter into a boat project. Bought another used motor while I look for a good deal on an oil cooler to put original motor back together. Motor came complete with spare transom plate, rams, pump, power steering (not going to use), dash panel, wiring harness, you name it.

Just a couple before and after pics of the bilge (not done) after motor pulled, before cleanup, and after cleanup. Along with the replacement motor before I started taking it almost completely apart and going through it, and after pic now that it's almost ready.
