Oil Cooler?

Okay, I am almost Complete with the motor swap. I have swapped out my old motor because the timing belt snapped, which destroyed my motor. I have a JDM Cyclone motor hooked up, everything is good to go upset there are two hoses next to the Oil Filter. A buddy of mine says that those two are hooked up to the oil cooler, but there is none, and was none that came with the motor. So I'm kind of lost as of what to do with the two hoses. What are ways to get rid of it or do I need a oil cooler, What are my options? Thanks.

p.s. I've got a 91 GSX.

Re: Oil Cooler?

You can either A) cap those ports off, after removing the lines, and use -an fittings, b) get a different housing or c) run an oil cooler, like I do. go find a used cooler or order one up from nick.

Re: Oil Cooler?

Yeah, definitely hook up the oil cooler. I've got an aftermarket one available with the braided lines already to go, just bolt up to your filter housing. Let me know if you're interested in it.
