Where were you planning on making the feed lins enter and exit the motor? Do you feel comfortable with the oil pressure availible to fill the cooler? Somewhere I have some pictures of where a guy plumbed cooler lines into a Superhawk motor if that is of use to you. Probably already where you are planning to put them.

If anyone can do it properly I have no doubt it will be Clever Dog Racing's fluid dynamics division. I didn't know if the inherent low pressure would be enough. The Superhawk cooler had fittings welded into the block using the gallery that runs across, just below the cylinders. That center of that passage gets bypassed but wouldn't matter.
Of course this cooler occupied the majority of the time I spent while driving around on the lawn mower and I completely spaced on checking the 175 for similar passages after the mower broke and I nearly pulled a John Hopkins nutty kicking at it. Big weekend for BFD

Do you think the pressure is greatest right at that location too?
The water pipe analogy is easy to understand so I can see how some other styles of routing I've seen may not be of much help.
