Hard vs. soft oil cooler lines

[Tremelune]

I think you're making a mountain out of a molehill. Exposed oil lines look cool, and when they're black they're barely visible anyway.

fair enough. I've put a lot into this build and just trying to make it perfect.

Perfect is the enemy of good.................

still debatable if you use soft lines versus hard lines. sounds like you might need 2 coolers to get the same benefit and that's 2x the cost.

Not necessarily true, as you can get lines that connect the cooler on the right to one added on the left.
I have one of these kits and the finned lines Elephant sells for my 81SC build.

Originally we were building a 3.5 for this car, but a few $$$$ set backs in other areas mean that, for now, will just get a slightly modified 3.0
