Wondering why you are doing the scavenge line like that when you already make the 914-6 style hard line the goes forward instead?

I just was not happy with the clearance around the oil return tubes and the heat exchangers. The OEM one was tight already so I have since abandoned those hard lines. I have some left that I would sell cheap if someone wants them. The Original early 911s also went over the bell housing. |

Would you happen to have a kit per say ? He would need everything from the engine to front oil cooler. He already has the oil cooler/housing kit from PMS. He needs the lines now. LMK. Thanks.. |

Have the following : Factory 914-6 engine oil cooler, 914-6 3 piece rubber lines, your SS return hard line, and Setrab front oil cooler with 12AN fittings. Also have a 12AN Mocal T-stat. |

Hey Ben,
Question about some of the oil lines if I decide to not go with a Porsche t-stat... What I have: -1975 2.7 engine, oem Behr cooler with a 30mm push on fitting -Your ss hard lines to a front mounted oil cooler -Your ss hard line from scavenge pump -Your Aluminum 914/6 oil tank What I plan to substitute: -Mocal male 16-AN thermostat, wherever convenient. Likely where the Porsche thermostat would mount. The Mocal units are about half the price of what I can find the Porsche ones for nowadays. *Edit: Just realized I highlighted the 12AN Mocal unit. I would be buying the 16AN unit...  -What I need: -All four lines for the Mocal t-stat: 1) SS hardline - ext. oil cooler supply 2) SS hardline - ext. oil cooler return 3) t-stat to oil tank return 4) from scavenge ss hard line to t-stat -Soft line from oil tank to engine return (push on the behr oil cooler) I'm wondering if it's worth the trouble to go with the Mocal t-stat since going to/from the SS hard lines to the ext. oil cooler seems like a challenge... If popped for the OEM Porsche thermostat, would it make life easier to simply order pre-bent and pre sized oil lines? |

You might want to rethink the 16 AN lines. They are really big, especially for a 2.7. Even a modified one.
