Anyone here run the stock /6 oil lines with a bigger engine (2.7/3.0)? I'm worried that it's a smaller diameter and may starve the engine for oil, and seeing as how I'm running HE's and a JWest linkage kit, the bigger braided lines seem to have clearance issues.

A somewhat larger displacement doesn't necessarily signify the need for larger oil lines. A high capacity pump might benefit from larger hose/pipe ID, but I'm can't say that for sure. I would think you'd be fine with the stock pipe and hoses.

Capt my capt - what do you think about a stock 6 hard line for the return on a 3.2 vs a larger converted 911 line like what PMS sells.

It's no hijack at all! I was thinking the same thing when I saw the PMS oil line, but my concern, again, is with the Heat Exchangers. I know eventually, I will put in a front mounted oil cooler, however for the time being I'll be sticking with stock. |

I think it's perfectly fine for you to try stock and upgrade if needed. You have your shop and you do the work. Since Scott is doing my car, I'm trying not to have too many do-overs. We've already had a couple earlier in the build - my fault, my money. |
