    Sealing up the oil cooler block-off plate once and for all?

    Mid September I removed my bypass filter setup and reinstalled the stock oil cooler block-off plate & bolts with Felpro # 72435 gasket with a thin coat of RectorSeal T+2 on the gasket. No leak.

    I have 3 vehicles with LS engines. All of which are driven conservatively, so none are pinned. I do plan on changing the balancer on 2 of them (07 Denali & 02 Corvette) this winter. I probably won't pin them, but never say never.

    @skpyle Pinning the balancer to the crank is a easy common mod for all LS engines. Youtube and summit racing are your friends.

    Yes Bad things would happen. Non AFM cam swap is required to run the non-AFM smooth VLOM, and AFM needs to be tuned out/turned off.
