Default Factory oil cooler????

I am having a problem with alittle bit of black crap showing up in my overflow tank. I have replaced the headgasket and flushed the system and new studs. The head and block was checked and was within spec. I am using the factory ITR oil cooler with a Greddy oil cooler. Now the question is has anybody had a OEM Honda oil cooler fail and do the same thing? Also there is NO water in the oil!

Sounds like you recently had a head gasket problem? If so you probably just didn't get all the crap out when you flushed. Don't worry unless you get water in the oil.

It did this 4 years ago when I first put it together. I had the time and motor out to replace the clutch. It was just bugging me. I replaced the gasket thinking that it was leaking. There were no signs of a blown gasket or warpage. The car never over heats even when it's a 90+ and humid out while racing it! Max temp I have ever seen was 200 in traffic before fan kicked on. It's just baffling me with bullshit!!
