Who makes an AN oil line from the motor to the tank to replace the one in the picture?

Don't the stock hoses have metric ends? AN has inch sizes, in sixteenths of an inch; AN-8 is 1/2" ID hose.
If the stock hose is metric, then the answer to your question is "Nobody does." You'd need some adapters and a hose of the correct length. --DD |

As Dave said, the key things are the metric end fittings. If you have those, you can use common AN hose that lots of people sell. Here's a link to one source of both AN hose and metric end fittings:

The line Patrick sells will bring the oil line up past the heat exchangers, the you simply have a hose made up with 3/4" hose and AN-12 fittings to attach to the oil tank.
There are metric to AN adapters made that attach to the engine block directly, but I'm not sure that the hose leading all the way to that fitting fits as nicely as the Patrick item. |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) That's what i have. The reason the PMS line is shorter is so you can run an external oil cooler. In the pics below, you can see the hose going to the thermostat to the right instead of going left to the tank as you would on a stock engine.

Thanks all,
I spoke to Brian at Patrick motorsports, he has all the hoses that I will need, at a reasonable price. |

Easy fix....
Cut the line, silver solder an AN fitting on and connect with flexible line to the location of your choice. I bought used fittings from a NASCAR shop on eBay at quite a good price.   |
