No I live down here in L.A.
I went to another radiator shop and they said they couldnt test it because you need "special plugs" for the bottom. The prior radiator shop that did a test on this oil cooler did not do it under alot of pressure. Isnt this thing working at least 60lbs because of the oil pressure?
They showed me what test they did and it was just the covering holes with thumbs and blowing air through the top then submerging it under a tank. Is this right?

I went to a machine shop and they said they can test it under about 80 lbs but it's 45 bucks and they can tell me a for sure if it's leaking or not.

It's just that alot is riding on this thing being good or bad so I want to be 100% sure.
can someone please let me know if it's supposed to be tested under high pressure? thanks!
