They can make up about any line you can think up, they have done good work for me.

Thanks for the lead on plumbing. I may need their services if I can't find what I want locally.

A little research popped up this little gem from Tyler Townsley:

Another little know reality is the worthlessness of the oil cooler system. There is a thermostat like device that prevents any meaningfull oil being circulated through the cooler until the oil gets to over 240+ deg. by then it is really too late to help. So if you are looking to address cooling the oil you have to do something about this 'thermostat' first.

After reading this tidbit my solution is clear.
Bye Bye oil cooler and stupid $350 pipes!!
