I'm running two oil coolers in the Spitfire. Due to the length of the lines and volume of the two coolers I reduced my oil lines to AN-8 (I think stock they were 10?) Now, before I close everything up I'm having second guessing. My total line length will be around 12'. I had planned on running the lines to one oil cooler, then the other, then back to the motor.
Any comments?

   Bob,
    Would your installation be able to use 5052 tubeing for any of your straight
oil line runs to cut down on the weight and expense of using hose for the entire
system ?
