RB Oil Cooler Line differences?
What is the difference between the for SE version compared to the other. I recently purchased a 13b but have the 12a cooler lines. Can these be made to work with my setup?

SE's are longer since the OC is mounted in front of the radiator. Question for you...where is your oil cooler?

Yes but he means WHERE is your FMOC?

79-83 it was under the (shorter) radiator, and 84-85 it was in front of the (taller) radiator.

That's why the lines would be different.

Oooh, well that makes sense. Mine is mounted in front. I have an 85. Installed the GSL-SEs cooler a while back, just haven't plumbed it yet.

Then I need the longer one. Oh well, more parts to order.

thanks
