Will GSL-SE oil cooler hoses work with a 79-82 Oil cooler?
I've been looking through the few pictures I could find and I'm thinking they will, but I want to confirm, are the fittings on the SE oil cooler the same size/thread as the 79-82 oil coolers?

I have a good leak free 12a oil cooler, but want to run the taller 83-85 radiator, I can make some mounts to put the oil cooler in front of the rad easy enough, I just want to make sure I can use an off the shelf line setup with it.
Thanks guys
-Sean

Thanks for the replies guys. I would want to move my 12a cooler in front of the rad, so thats why I want the longer lines, but I've been talking to Dave and now I'm not sure it'll work because the fittings on the SE cooler are angled to clear the rad... so much for that idea
