That would not have a stock hook up location for the oil cooler lines.
you need to add something like this between the oil cooler\warmer and the oil
filter itself.
I just got one of these.

and you have to figure out a way to pipe it to the oil cooler, most use
transmission line rubber tube and hose clamps to barb connectors

*Thanks Loren, if I take the thin line that takes water to the reservoir,
coolant is pushed in an intermittent way, should be like that? First of all
I think is necessary to reconnect the oil cooler. Where do I have to connect
it? To which tube?
Thanks
Pablo.
