Stacking up parts for my conversion..
I am going to be putting in a little 2.0 six for starters on this one so i may not put in a cooler, but will want the option for later, if I go bigger. But who puts a kit together that uses German fittings? OR do I need to use AN? |

Do NOT use the 30mm fittings if you are looking for ease of assembly and replacement parts. I have switched over to all AN set ups when talking to customers doing conversions. So much easier

So much easier Yes I had to shop around for a few 30mm fitting but wanted to stay with them as the ones I got with the car when I bought it were pretty much all I needed. It bit me in the ass as couldn't find someone to swage them ,last shop I tried still had sets of old Parker dies which worked ,thought I had struck gold until the guy doing the work was an idiot and cocked up 2 hoses , luckily I had some spares and got that sorted myself before watching him closely so he didn't repeat his mistakes. All in all a pretty expensive exercise but found Elephant racing and Stoddard were very got to deal with. . Attached thumbnail(s) |

I had Len re-hose 2 oil hose/pipes on my 930. He does very nice work. Would absolutely go to him again. |
