Hi All -
I am getting the oil lines configured for the conversion. Patrick Motorsports sells the below modified 911 oil return hard line for 140.00. Has anyone used this? Is it really that difficult to get a soft line secured so that it does not sag on to the headers? It seems kinda of pricey - and I am not real happy about having an AN fitting on the one end - but if it works and alleviates future issues, it may be worth it. Would love to hear any opinions. Thanks! Scott S Attached image(s) |

I say no, but I am a cheap ass bastard barbarian. I have made my own by cutting a 911 line for the steel tube and then silver soldering a fitting of my choice on it. I used industrial fittings / hose rather than AN.
My last incarnation, was to use the hooped line that runs around the bellhousing off a 911 to move the line away from the HEs and run the return to the oil tank with industrial lines and fittings. |
