Message	There are so many different options, and I actually find it a FUN experience (yeah I know! Working on the Z + Fun???) to make up your own different types of lines and connections. One thing worth noting Ebay oil coolers can be found that are just as good quality as any name-brand (They are very simple pieces of metal). Just get your capacity-preference, then find your braided hose and fittings (name brand for those however), push-lock hose+fittings is the simple choice for oil coolers. Also dont forget a thermostatic sandwich adapter!!! FWIW, I have SPL kit, Love it! Just if I have to take the rad out, then it becomes a major pain! ____________________________________________________ "If Charlie Sheen quit doing cocaine - and a month later, he died of a heart attack...
