yea it does.. you have to get it custom bent.. or one fabed up so that it will work. BUT! the lines go UNDER the stator /stator cover...

I have an oil cooler adapter from the 95 big bear on my warrior. It will work on the rap 350 too, but you will probably have to do something with the shifter. I just muscled mine out a little bit and it worked fine, i'm not sure exactly how it will work on the raptor 350 because the shifter and footpeg is different, but I know there's guys that use the big bear setup on the raptor.

side view of my warrior, you can see the adapter and oil lines

If you want to see some better pictures I have them on my computer, just let me know and I can email them to you.

I'll email you a pic in a few minutes

You need a all of the pieces, it includes the part where the lines thread into, the spacer that goes in between, and the spring, disc, clip, and washer, and of course both the o-rings

I had some extra time so I just uploaded them to the server.

here's the adapter

the cooler from an angle

and the cooler through the hood

I don't know if the last 2 will help you much since the mounting will be different on the raptor, but make sure you have it mounted in the same direction, with the hoses pointing up.
