Relocating oil cooler

I am planning on relocating my oil cooler because it is in the way of my new intercooler piping. My question is can I mount it horizontally with the oil lines facing upward or does it have to stay vertical? Any help would be great. Thanks!

It is best in an airstream, but with a fan behind it almost anything is ok. Keep in mind that you want one or both lines on the bottom for draining/cleaning out cooler, otherwise it must com out to drain/clean.

I suggest going larger, the B&M supercooler is large and @ about $50.us not a bad deal. You need to adapt it to your lines because it has NTP1/2 fittings. I just go to the nearest Areoquip dealer and have new lines made so I know it is all up to the task. B&M also has a supercooler with a fan but at around $220. us a pop buying the lines is a better deal.
