Quick question about oil cooler kit

I got a CWR twin oil cooler kit that I haven't installed yet. Since it's supposed to be installed with the fittings pointing down, how do I get air out of the coolers? Will it come out normally with oil flow even with the fittings pointing down?

Here's a pic of Crispy's car (I think). This is the same kit I have, notice the cooler connections at the bottom.

Yes, they point down. There's no need to "burp" air out of the oil system the way you do the cooling system.
