WOW, Definately get a new mechanic and purchase a aftermarket oil cooler from stm or another reputable shop or find a wrecked evo oil cooler... There pretty pricey..

Thanks guys for the advice but unfortunately he’s the best mechanic in the city and the only EVO mechanic so the only thing I can do is buy an aftermarket long block and simply install it and I need some recommendations what do suggest I buy for something very reliable on the track? I’m thinking of a long block that could handle more than 600 or 700 hp and only do 400-450hp to be more on the safe side! and can push it really hard in hot weather conditions! and of course I’m gonna get a proper tune and bigger oil cooler for sure I want something really really reliable!!!!!

Sounds tune related, I dont honestly believe you need a built short/long block. The tune caused the plug failure, if the same thing happens in a built motor....well your gonna end up blowing engine number 5 as well.
