Question Koyo N-Flow Radiator Install

I got my old radiator out following the FSM no problem, even figured out how to flip the ears to make the koyo to fit in perfectly, but now I have hit another snag. In putting the swaybar mounts back in I discovered an Oil Cooler line is keeping the mount from mating back up perfectly on the drivers side. I currently have 1 oil cooler installed in my 94 PEP, but I have purchased the lines and the second cooler ready to drop in.

Will mounting the second cooler change up the return lines and provide me the space I need for the Radiator? Is this why some members say the Koyo drops right in an other say it is tight?

I have done some more research (especially noting the pictures from Howard Coleman's Dual Oil Cooler cheap - thread) and it appears that with the second oil cooler, the hardline that is currently in my way acutally is eliminated and is routed to the passenger side Oil Cooler. The only thing is his pictures show non stock lines and I want to make sure the stock lines don't pose a similar issue. Does anyone have pics of how the stock (or a FSM picture - I seached for a diagram on the OC hardlines on my FSM and came up empty) Dual oil Cooler lines are run?

I am thinking I need to stop the Rad Install and tackle the coolers first and then come back to completing the rad, but until I figure out a fix here I am stuck.

'sorry i can't be of much help... i do run a larger alu rad but i installed it 9 years ago. further, i run the widefoot swaybar mounts w a Speedway Eng bar. and,of course, some of my lines are not stock since i adapted a driver's side cooler.

i had no problem w the rad mounts.
