I planned to run a Dual Oil Filter relocator with a Oil Cooler. The Oil cooler will be located Front of the Condensor and the Oil filter would be also relocated at the front as well, I"m just using a 5/16 oil line , I am worry that the line is too long and decease the oil pressure ? what I want to know is that would the stock oil pump handle a dual oil filter plus a oil cooler. I've just rebuilded my engine ( with a set of forged piston plus all new gasket) and will be running 15 psi . give me some advice if I really need a Oil cooler in the Hot Summer in Texas?

I think most guys use an oil cooler with the stock pump, but Ive never heard of a dual filter setup...

I"m getting a Amsoil Dual oil filter setup , otherwise I probably just run one filter setup . however what is the Psi I should look for after the filter and relocator, and what kind of hose I should use to maintain at the right pressure ? Rigth now the kit come with a -8 line

it should be fine ,I have same setup , on my rebuild 95 it works fine, Man I love the amsoil , i won't run anything else, 20w50 amsoil 2000 race oil . I have big oil cooler, I live in texas, hot idle oil psi should be 16-22 cold idle will be about 45 it should climb 10psi per 1000rpm or close to that.
