Is my engine cooling effected......

by the gap in the fiberglass engine tin on the left shown in the picture? This is my 3.6 engine that is using early cross member and fiberglass engine tin. There is a rather big gap as you can see in the left of the picture. Should I cover this area like the right side for better cooling or is this not a problem?

Where does the oil cooler go on a 3.6? Shouldn't it be over there somewhere?

Pat:

3.6 motors do not have engine-mounted coolers; there is a pressure side oil filter mounted in its place.

Yes, it needs to be sealed, it should be something like this 964




Only the 993 has a filter there
