Oil Feed/Return Fitting Sizes.

Searched around but didn't find what the fitting sizes are for both the oil feed line(oil filter location) and oil return line (Drain Pan). It would be really helpful to know exactly since I'm making my own lines.

It's a brake line flare fitting type deal. I can't remember if it's 3/8" or 7/16". I'm thinking 7/16" but don't hold me to it.

I took my old line it to the local auto store because I damaged it taking the turbo off. They came out of the back with a piece of straight brake line and suggested I bend it with a box end wrench to the shape I needed.

There isn't any real reason to anything other than the stock return line for the T25. SS return lines are often harder to get on.


EDIT: Just found this:

I figured out what that weird thread is.... The thread is 7/16-24 inverted flare.

The adapter that connects the oil feed line to the oil fiter housing is BSP (British Standard Pipe) and 3/8". It has a restrictor in it.


And don't bump your threads. It's highly frowned upon. You didn't even give it 3 hours.

well on a site where people prefer to respond to the same, tired, old how do I get 300whp, how much can internals handle, what should I buy, does this setup sound good threads, sometimes bumping helps to catch someones attention like yourself.
