How'd you manage that twice? Low on oil both times? I've owned mine since new and it's the original motor. Do you put in 7 qts of oil?
Low on oil the first time, and that's when I found out I should put 7qts in. The second time the engine got hot (didn't boil over, just above normal) because my cooling fan quit and I was stuck in traffic. I got home and changed the oil and babied it for a couple thousand miles. Then the first pull past 5000 RPM it happened.
Still have your stock oil cooler?
When I did the rebuild I got a new one. When I did a motor swap I just parted out my old motor so the oil cooler got tossed. But for any engine I had in my 99 I was always running the stock oil cooler.
Id suggest getting a remote those passages are small and clog easy in stock oil coolers
