I looked for some but you can't really tell from the pics.
I routed mine from the water pump to the turbo then to the heater core. Then from the heater core to the oil cooler. It then goes to the block.
I went with new lines from napa and some lines from work. I got heat in the car in just a few minutes after I crank it up and oil cooler gets the oil temp up quicker too. Took alot of the stock lines out of the system and it easy to work on this way.

do you think 3/16" steel line is big enough for the oil feed from the sending unit to the turbo

I used brake line on one setup. worked great. Just make sure the ends mate up for the line. Hydraulic hose from napa is on mine now. Took my parts to them and got it made to fit. About 20 bucks.

yeah that is wat i'm going to do is make hydraulic hoses at work for the oil and then for the water lines i have some stainless steel braided water line form work, also got the t/b machined by my father in law to fit the intake and i matced the holes up.

thanks
p.s. the 94-95 5.0 mustang t/b is not a simple bolt on, wilbur (father in law)had to slot 3 holes and drill a new hole in the t/b to make it adapt to the intake.
