Good day all, I tried searching and could not seem to come across my answers, appologies if this topic has been covered
I have purchased a boat that had a 454 / 350 swapped, the original 454 cracked a block apparently because it was not winterized properly. So the 350 was swapped in, and the install is about 95%, and then I bought it because the guy was leaving town. I did not discover it originally had a 454 until after I got it home.. So thats the back story.
Now the question. I have what looks like the original 454 oil/ps cooler and it seems there is no place for the oil ports. I have this spare hose that looks like one of the hoses for the oil cooler but can not seem to see where it goes. I tried looking for photos of line routing etc and could not.
So my question is. With the 454 oil/ps cooler, what do I do with the oil cooler ports off of the cooler? I would just run the oil through it for the 350, but unsure what lines to run and where to connect these.
Perhaps I just block off the ports?
If someone can direct me a bit would be very helpful. It is I think one of the last puzzle pieces I need to get it running. Thanks!
