Oil cooler elbow: 4 hours

  • After the oil cooler elbow had cured I removed the metal valve / hose adapter then broke up the mold foam inside of the elbow and pulled all of it out.
  • I spent a good bit of time cutting off excess fiberglass and sanding
  • I prepped the elbow and added a another layer of fiberglass around the edges, patched a few spots on the body of it and reinforced the ring where the metal piece fits.

Oil cooler elbow with additional layer of fiberglass applied:

Good fit on the oil cooler:

Happy with the initial results:
