Oil cooler orientation (Z1 cooler)

My bottom braided line is run only about halfway up the height of the cooler. I did the sideways mounting mainly for a better more efficient mounting position, no possibility

My bottom braided line is run only about halfway up the height of the cooler. I did the sideways mounting mainly for a better more efficient mounting position, no possibility of trapped air, limited drainback and possibility of debris retention. I haven't changed the oil yet after installation but I figure I'll blow a little air into the top line to fully drain the oil retained in the cooler and lines. Being sideways, it should come out easy. I didn't install any tee's in the lines like you mentioned.
