Hy 1951Chevy1Ton, is this filter going to be a bypass or full filtration filter. If it is going to be a bypass you can use smaller diameter lines and if you incorporate a loop into their configuration they are less likely to fracture. If it is for full filtration then I would use flexible line of a large enough diameter not to restrict flow to the engine, copper line of a large enough diameter to flow enough would be difficult to bend if needed, hope that helps.
