New oil cooler lines
Just installed my new oil cooler lines from Jerry's. Could I have built my own, sure. But I'd rather spend a little more and support the very few vendors that are out there, to keep our cars running 100%. Easy job to do and Jerry sends a installation sheet too (although the one thing I would change is, once both lines are connected to the block, I would then connect them to the adapter and then to radiator. Connecting the adapter first to the radiator, then lines is almost impossible, unless you remove the radiator shroud first on a 1990). Here's some before and after pics.
[IMG][/IMG] A big thanks to Jerry for making these available and your installation sheet made it super easy. They look great and no more leaks.

Re: New oil cooler lines
Thanks for the feedback Joe. I will edit my installation procedure to reflect your suggestion.
I probably missed the shroud interference because I had cut mine for clearance when I installed the Ron Davis radiator 10+ years ago.... and just forgot about it. Getting older allows one to incorporate a new set of lame excuses!
