need help installing oil cooler!!

hey guys
i bought a 15 row fluidyne oil cooler to install on the passenger side air duct of the front bumper of my FD

i have about 16 feet of stainless steel lines and i need some helping figuring out what fittings to use, and i also bought a RE oil filter pedestal that has all the threaded holes for the oil temp, oil press, and oil line

i want to also replace the all the original oil cooler lines with these new SS ones

what size fittings should i be looking for, and also what size tap should i use to put the fittings in the original oil cooler on the drivers side

was there ever a write up because i've been searching and cant find anything

also is there anything else i need than this: oil pedestal, SS lines, and the fittings

and what other modifications will i need to make?

Stock oil cooler uses 22x1.5mm to AN adapter size of your choice. I am using -10 AN. Part number from pegasus racing 3276-013.

Did you get your RE pedestal with the AN outlet welded in? Front cover adapter is is 18x1.5mm to -10 AN. Stock oil filter pedestal uses the same size.

This thread by Howard Coleman was a huge help!
