Well Hello Pillow. I have tried to call you several times to see whats up.
Most engines regulate the oil pressure at the pump but a VW engine uses the press. relief pistons/springs in the case so if you full flow out of the pump to the filter, cooler, etc, the pressure is unregulated from the pump. A tight fresh engine and 30mm pump pushing 20x50 was too much for the Volvo coolers. they lasted about 20 sec. each.
I found some 90 deg. AN fittings at AeroQuip in Forest Park for $17 ea. with a sealing jam-nut to seal against the cooler. I will have to AN the rest of the system.
