I am wondering if anyone has a good spec on the ID/OD for the two brass lines running to and from the front oil cooler? See Pix from P-Base for reference / I will be using AN fittings at the working ends for my flexible connections to the cooler and the thermostat and oil tank etc.. And does anyone know generally what the oil pressure is (hot) going to the front oil cooler??
I could also makes kit-sets for other installations if anyone is interested / Once I know how the factory did the job and I can accurately replicate the same or similar quality and product..... Thanks in advance for the input. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Attached image(s) ![]() ![]() ![]() |

I have a slightly related question:
Can I use 5/8" Aluminum tube (10-AN like this: https://www.summitracing.com/parts/sum-g2558/overview/) for high pressure (up to ~100 PSI) oil lines? You can flare the tubing and add AN fittings. I was wondering if I could replace a maze of 10-AN fittings and braided stainless hose with some of this. I know that Al Tube is acceptable on aircraft for oil, but is it a different type? |

I know that Al Tube is acceptable on aircraft for oil, but is it a different type? I have some of that line. Not bad stuff, but for an oil line that's WAY too small. You will also need hose ends for vibration purposes on each end of that since that tube is super rigid, and by the time you're done you have about DOUBLE as many AN fittings as you would have if you had just used hose. |
