oil cooler lines ?

Ok I did a search and couldnt find much on this. I upgraded my oil cooler to a mocal 19 row. I can make the oil lines but I cant seem to find a fitting that will fit in the engine or the oil filter. Is there anyone here that has done this before?

Thanks

Thread for the pedestal and the front cover is 18x1.5mm. I'd use -10AN lines. You can get 18x1.5mm to -10AN adaptors at summit.

Not to my knowledge. Both my front cover and pedestal use the 18x1.5. My car is 93 though; Could they differ from year to year?
