Can someone say for sure what size oil lines I have here? I need to buy a couple of AN straight end connectors (if anyone has some for sale) and don't want to guess. The larger one on the left will be going to the engine mounted oil cooler from the tank and the other is the scavenging side to the tank (sorry, this is for a six if it's not obvious). Could the large one be AN-16 which is optimum, right?

don't ass-u-me and the thread count is not helpful. IIRC, 45-degree SAE fittings (naturally...) use the same sizes but the flare angles are NOT compatible with AN's 37-deg. find a KNOWN AN male fitting and compare flare angles.
that fitting looked awful small... if the ID of the fitting is smaller than AN-12's nominal ID, it's not gonna flow enough oil... i'm confused on what you're doing with adapters and such - what is the actual connection to the cooler - and what kind of cooler is it? and while you may be able to get adapters, stepping down from big lines to teeny ports is not going to get you the effect you need... |
