OEM Oil Cooler Line Setup
OEM Oil Cooler Line Setup
My 1988 IROCZ has the factory oil cooling set up that connects to the radiator and the filter housing. The metal part of the lines are in pretty bad shape and found aluminum replacements on Hawks. My current set up has rubber hoses connecting the ends of the metal lines to the radiator and to the filter housing with hose clamps you would get at your local hardware store. Is that what the factory used? I looked around and can't really find any rubber OEM hose specific to this oil cooler set up

Yup, the worm clamps are factory. Should be some on your heater core too
