I have a remote oil cooler, and i was wondering what type of lines i can use to carry the oil to and from the cooler. Understandably they must be able to resist extremely high temperatures, and able to resist any corrosive properties of the oil.
Also, would transmission lines be a good solution? |

You have a few options. You can go to any place that makes hydraulic lines and they can build whatever you need. This is probably the cheapest way to go.
The next cheapest option is to get the push lock barbed fittings. The fittings are cheaper and so is the hose. The coolest looking and most expensive is the oil line that's got the stainless braided sheath on the outside, and the premium aluminum swivel fittings. This is race car/aviation type of components and they cost. The hose is right a $8.50 a foot, and the 45 and 90 fittings are about $29 each. The last car I built had over $300 in oil line, fittings, and the cooler. PK (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) |
