AN -12 v.s. -16 lines for an oil cooler and cooler size recommendations?

Hey Guys,

I have a fairly built 2.7 in my track car. The previous owner never put an oil cooler in it and last weekend at buttonwillow the car was at 235-240 degrees within 3 laps with an ambient temp of 95 degrees. I pulled off track once they got that high and just didn't drive for the rest of the weekend since I don't like the idea of driving it with oil temps that high.

I have a Mocal oil cooler with AN -12 fittings, however I've heard varying opinions on AN -12 VS. AN -16. I haven't purchased the lines yet, but i would like to have some made soon so I can and then cooler installed.

My question is are AN -12 okay, or should i buy a new cooler with AN -16 ports. And what size would you guys recommend for the oil cooler. The car is a dedicated track car that I take to occasional meets.
