Welp I came out to warm my wagon up, the low oil light came on I moved it to find a nice puddle underneath her...I've already changed the oil cooler gaskets I even used rtv...

I don't what I could of did wrong or what could of went wrong already...

I did notice the metal o-rings the go into the cooler looked ok but the rubber looked a little worn...

Is this a big problem with these LT1's?

By the way its my new 96' RMW LT1...
