Using back dated oil lines with SC exhaust

Can I use my original heat exchangers with my backdated oil lines? I have a temporary need to install my original exhaust but I don't have all of the original lines anymore.

No, the exhaust interferes with the early lines. The solution is to use the Elephant Universal Crossover line. It routes over the trans which means you can swap back and forth with no issues.

I put this on my 87 car which was a bit more difficult as the G50 has to have a rib ground down to clear the line but the ability to swap the exhaust at will is well worth it.

+1 for the universal line. After smog test, it was a easy putting SSI's back on.
