Looking for oil cooler line for 94 LT5 at reasonable price. Any lead would be appreciated. Thanks.

I replace the old oil cooler line with new one, but using the same connector and replacing the rubber tube with new steel mesh.
I replaced it with 60 U.S.D.....

Hi guys...i'll try to describe that best that i can...
My Z is a1990. I dismount the original rubber tube and cut the alluminium wrap near tre connector. I carry the 3 connector (2 from engine and 1 from the oil radiator) to a person who realize high pressure oil line. He cut 2 rubber tube with the same diameter and lenght of the original and after he put on it a new steel mesh. There is only a problem, the original plate with 2 alluminium tube who exit from the oil radiator must be cut at the middle of it because thw person who replace the tube did not succeed to apply the new wrap. I realize a little iron plate to push the tube into the oil radiator with the original screw.
Guys, if my english is bad i can write in Italian and Dominic Sorreso translate in correct english...
Bye!!!









When you install the new oil cooler line you must use a insulating paste around the radiator hole to prevent oil leak
I hope to help you!!!!
