If I had a leaking oil cooler line I'd be plugging em off to get me home. I'm sure it would have no short term effect until new lines are made......

Oh I got ya. I thought he used the long rods..... I did the same 4.6 rods with 4.0 piston heads on the 4.6 crank.

Oil pump seems fine with feeler gauges, should I put assembly lube on pump gears?
