dude...



I usually weave my own stainless line. First I buy high pressure oil line from autozone. then I buy a 4x4 sheet of stainless steel, 1/2in thickness. Then bust out the sawzall. Cut strips about 1/8in wide, straight as possible. Then you weave it around the rubber line... but the overlay has to be perfect. My last oil return only took me about 600 hours. The oil feed is another issue though, its a lot longer in length so it takes longer to weave. You will also need like two more sheets of stainless. If it sounds confusing don't worry, I'm posting a writeup on hondatech soon

600 hours?? Your ------- wack. I did mine in 549 hours. I even made one out of my ------ fro once.

Oil lines are cheap. Not even worth the hassle to make your own.

But if you're really cheap. I can see using barbed fittings and rubber fuel lines from the autopart stores.

---- foo, I just find a worn out valve cover gasket at the junkyard. Then just let the oil leak out and hopefully fall into the inlet on the center housing. For the return I just hang an old soda bottle underneath it. Then when i gets full I just pour it right back into the engine. It's called recycling niglets.

I use my old oil for suntan lotion, hair grease, general sexual lubricant, and to put in super soakers to spray on locals.
I think we both tie in the recycling department.

just use some 3/16 brake line for the feed and get the proper fittings. the return should be a no brainer

How well does that work? I'm sure theres probably better line than fuel line, perhaps hydraulic line of some sort?
