Carb Oil heating pipes

I have just fitted a different engine into my 600SS and it came with Dynojetted carbs that use the oil heating circuit to stop the carb Icing. My intention is to fit the float bowls off my original carbs. So what I want to know is what is the best thing to do with the oil pipes from the engine.
a, I could just blank them
b, I could just loop them
C, I could try nd fit a oil cooler between them

Any thoughts on the above please.

If you could use them to hook up an oil cooler then surely that's the way to go. Seems like something to take advantage of.

Hmm yeah but its only a problem at low rpm.You guys will be WFO most of the time,............apart from the Cadwell woodland hairpin!
What you need is a splash of Silkolene Pro FST in the tank.

pro FST with shell advance petrol carb icing is history plus feels like a slight power gain when using shell advance - any one else noticed this???

I think I'd be tempted to just blank 'em off for the mean time - using the 'keep it simple' rule!

good luck - Frank
