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 bought all my fittings from a guy on e-Bay. He got them from the NASCAR teams. Apparently, when they blow an engine, they don't use anything over. He would sell the lines with fittings VERY cheap. I used the fittings and tossed the lines for over a 50% savings and the fittings were like new. Don't know if they are still available but worth a look.....
