I cant get this braided line to stop leaking from my 50 trim to the oilpan. It is just a piece of braided hose with 2 screw clamps on each end. I looked at the actual ends that are suppose to go on the braided line and when thats said and done it will run me close to $60. What turbo to pan oil lines are you guys useing that dont leak? What did you pay for them?

TIA
 
Use your stock or 1g oil return line (its a metal piece) and use RTV, the blue stuff to seal it wtihout a gasket. I used one gasket in my whole turbo install, and thats the only that started to leak so I took it off and resealed it with RTV and I havent even had a smidgen of a leak.

Edit: I just saw you had a 50-trim, not too familiar with those wether they will fit with the return lines...
 
I'm using the "actual ends" that I got from Murray's (a local performance shop) with no problems... they were only about $12 each - you shouldn't have to spend more than that. Summit sells some from Earl's for around that much.

Is it 10-AN? Eitherway, they have AN to tube adapters for 10, 8, and 6 -AN lines...

You can try Murray's website too:
