K&N oil filters

Okay, has anyone had a problem with high oil pressure after installing a K&N oil filter? I have used them twice and I noticed that when I use a stock oil filter I have no problems but right now I have a K&N and both times I've noticed the needle for oil pressure is high. I'll take a pic and upload in a little while

Can't imagine why a K&N would jack the oil pressure on the high side????

With a clean filter, all the problems I've seen with a K&N had to do with the MAF

Yeah, I finally figured it out. My oil cooler inlet, outlet lines are old. Oh and they don't make them anymore. I've tried every resto shop and website. Everyone has said that they stopped manufacturing them last year and the few they had left over flew off the shelves. Everyone told me that I need to find a HVAC tech to fabricate the lines for me. That was the only good news since I'm in school for HVAC but now my only trouble is finding an outlet that carries aluminum lines or thin walled steel lines that are bendable
