I purchased my oil tank from GPR today. The Vellios comes with 3/4 NPT sized connections. I need to get my engine oil cooler (off a 3.0L SC) converted by Rich and he wants to know what size fitting to weld on. Am I correct to go with 12 AN? I've heard/read some use 16 AN?
Also, is there a list of what fittings and lengths of hoses are needed for all oil plumbing? Basic plumbing, no external oil cooler. |

The oil cooler line is an engine feed line. -16 is optimal, -12 is bigger than the factory lines. In addition -16 is a tightsqueeze. -12 ia a good compromise as stated above, unless its a race engine.
