Hi All
Finally I will be fitting my spin on oil filter housing with new oil cooler hoses.

With all the oil cooler hose ends that is the two at the oil cooler, engine block and oil filter housing do you use some kind of thread sealant when screwing them in

What do you guys recommend?

Thanks again

The hose ends are flares, you don't put sealant on them.
The block fitting seals on a copper washer.
The oil housing nipple i use Loctite 262 and screw it in.
