The fittings are attached to the lines, but they are just *barely* long enough to reach, so I doubt I could cut them off and put new ends on and still have enough length. I picked up a pair of female to female 90* adapters and a pair of male to male adapters (the cooler has male connections, hoses female) which should do the trick next oil change.
I took the car for a shakedown drive yesterday - under 50mph, varied city driving, mostly slow (looking at houses in the area) and my temps got up to about 205 but seemed to go down to about 195 when moving faster, which is expected...Still hard to tell though. Oil is definitely flowing through the cooler as it is very hot. I'm driving 3 hours on the freeway tonight back to Ft. Gordon, so I should know a little better how faster driving fares tonight.
