Default Need help with return line fittings.

I need help with finding a combo of fittings that will work.

Okay, from turbo to drain. the line coming from the turbo is -10an (5/, and my oil pan is already tapped with a 12mm (I don't want to retap it, avoiding this as much as possiable), so I need to get a -10an hose into a 12mm.

I'm lookin at all the sites with those earl's fitting and can't find a combo that fits, for the oil pan the best one that will fit is a 12mm to -8an male... can't thinki of any reducers in the right config to make this work..


Also, anyone know what a "flare" reducer is?

flare is just one of the kinds of fittings.. u would need a flare tool to give the end of the pipe a lip so the fitting seals agianst it.. the other kind is a cmpression fitting.
