cheaper alternative to stock oil cooler lines.....
Hey.... i just pulled the motor out of my gsl-se parts car... i was planning on keeping the oil cooler lines because im putting the oil cooler into my 81.... anyhow... i was unable to get the lines off when pulling the motor... the lines were frayed and not in that good of shape so i cut them... will i be able to use any kind of rubber hose and clamp it until i can get a nice braided steel line set from summit?....

If you use any rubber hose and clamps you have will all most certainly blow the hoses off and be a loser.
Any rubber hose is unlikely to be compatible with hot engine oil.
Also a hose clamp isn't designed to withstand 60+psi.
Its not worth losing an engine.
