External Oil Cooler Lines

[P3Kans DSM]

The lines on my 90 cooler are trash and I've searched everywhere for just a ss kit with out the cooler. Does anyone no what exact an fittings is needed to make a ss line kit for this. Would be greatly appreciated. Or if you have a set you'd get rid of let me no. Thanks guys for the help.

Thank you sir.... Making your own kit is just about as expensive as buying one..... Sheesh

ON the older style OFH (maybe all of them but i run the early 90 style) YOu can also remove it and just tap the holes to 3/8npt and skip buying the metric adapters ( i'm thinking it's 3/8ths NPT IIRC or whatever the large NPT thread is on the -6 fittings)

Anyway, the tap is cheaper than the fittings are and that's how i've done mine, i wouldn't say there's any benefit to one way or the other aside from if some one is affraid to tap the housing or don't want to remove it to make sure the metal is cleaned out of it after tapping, but that's just how i've ran mine for years..

A cheap place t get a good oil coooler is the junk yard. find an external tranny cooler from a dodge truck/van, then just use the 5/16th's compression couplers to adapt from the hardline on them to the -6 AN stuff. That's what i run and also what i normally do for friends/customers who don't want to spend 100+ on an oil cooler alone saving more money for fittings, lines and other parts
