I have AN hose that I'll be running from the 914/6 oil tank to the (engine mounted) oil cooler. I know that the cooler has to be modified but since I have a simple weld-on straight AN adapter, couldn't I just weld that adapter onto the blank end of the cooler's pipe then use a 90 degree AN fitting to attach it to the hose? I mean is there enough room to do that? Would the cooler's pipe (which has no threads) have to be shortened, by how much? Would a 45 degree fitting work..I already have one of those? I haven't seen anyone do it this way, only seen 90 degree fittings welded to the cooler's pipe..any pics?

Yes, that pic helps and I'm saving it for future reference. I looked at pegasus' website before I posted this thread and didn't see the drain fitting.. may have better luck just calling them though, which I'll do eventually.
Mike, that 911 hose doesn't crimp itself closed at the 90 degree turn? Got a picture? Doug C |

I can take pics later but the hose comes straight down without any bends....I cut the pipe a bit further back towards the cooler.
