So I'm going to start routing the lines to mount my oil cooler. the actual cooler itself is going in the pass side fenderwell behind the vent in the 91-94 front end. I'm trying to figure out the best place to put the oil cooler in the lines though. Should I place it pre-turbo so the oil is as cool as possible going into the turbo to help cool it off OR post turbo so I'm cooling off the hot oil after it comes out of the turbo. ALso has anybody had any luck finding an oil filter adapter so I can actually have lines coming off the filter without custom making one? thanks

use an oil cooler adapter for a ford v8, you can find them very cheap, aka sandwich adapter. This will allow you to run your lines from right under the oil filter.
