I agree on the SS lines. I used fabric shrouded lines on my last install.

Alan...I vivdly remember the first plug change on my old 993!! Not easy there either! The 370 Oil cooler install really looks like a piece of cake. The filter base is easily accessible, hose routing appears to be no problem, and there is plenty of space to mount the Exchanger. The only thing I would prefer is the ability to mount it somewhere other than in front of the radiator as I did in my Audi....The heat expelled from the oil cooler flows directly into the radiator putting a little more load on the cooling system. I understand the stock set-up also has an exchanger to the water system but I'm not sure where it is at this point. On my Audi this was removed and bypassed therefore upping the cooling threshold on the water system... I'll look into this..
