Adapting oil cooler lines to radiator

[1991SSP]

Anyone know what adapters are needed to adapt the stock oil cooler lines from the LQ4 engine to the stock OBS radiator?

They threaded right in for me. I ended up replacing them with an fittings and -6 hose because the old lines started leaking. I might have had to use new o rings.

I had oil lines with the push type connectors,,, found out tonight that they would not work.. lines hit the motor mount.. I'll look into other options

Yup mine were the same connectors. The piece that you push into can unthread from the radiator. If they are the cooler lines that came with that lq4 they should snake right around the mount. Maybe I'm missing something. I spent about 120$ on fittings and hose to run new cooler lines.

I got to thinking if you're trying to install the lines after the engine is in it's a pita. You would have to unbolt the motor mount and jack up the drivers side to sneak the hard lines behind the mount. There is no way you could thread them through with all the bends they have.

my truck is a c3500.. I have no problems getting the lines through... the problem is with the part of the motor mount that is welded to the frame,, thats what the lines are hitting... I used dirty dingo mounts to install my engine onto the stock lower mounts on my truck
