Is there a need for -6 oil lines? Options

[mb911]

I have been able to locate the proper oil lines and fittings and believe I can also supply the hard line which many feel are to small but in actuality they are just fine as the inside of the oil tank is the same size as the id of the scavange line.

Anyhow I kind of looking for input as to if this is a valuable resource in such a way that I should invest in multiple sets to stock with oil tanks etc or are most people going the AN route?

I am looking to make a complete oil supply system. I plan to also make a dipstick that reflects real qtys in my tanks..

Thoughts are welcome..

Today I spent organizing how to make GT style lines. The hose manufacturer is going to do that as well. Now just missing the t stat so probably make adapters for that..

Hi Ben,

How will the lines run from the rear to front ?
Like a factory Gt (drivers side) or the elephant racing style (pass side) ?

I kinda like the idea of the steel lines run on the outer pass long then over/around the inner right fender into the front trunk.

Keep us posted.

I think Ben is talking about reproducing the factory GT lines that sit on the driver side. I also really like the elephant setup that go up the passenger side and over the wheel well. When it was time to run mine (I used a/n 12 ss hose), I found it was easier for me to run one line up the passenger side and then run the return down the driver side. I don’t have a oil cooler on the engine or a thermostat. I did consult with our race car mechanic before I went this direction and he said I would be good. There are lots of ways to skin this cat but I think it’s great Ben is making at least one option that is proven to work. I am always amazed how quickly he goes from concept to stock on the shelf.
