Default Mocal oil cooler

I'm looking at buying a mocal 16 row oil cooler for my gc8 classic I'm just wondering what length hoses people are going for as I haven't had time to mock it up.

The lengths I can choose from are:

31, 33, 45, 49, 55, 67, 77 inches.

Mount the core in position, then use a length of graden hose to work out your line length. That way ensuring the perfect length

Ps coolers work a lot better when air is ducted through them, not just mounted towards the front of the car for example

Are you expecting to use the car on track? If not why fit a oil cooler?

How would you go about fitting one in the best position?

Make sure the pipes and cooler are mounted above sump level otherwise draining the old oil is a mare.
