Default SS oil feed line.. too small?
How much oil has to actually flow through the oil feed line? I am a little worried that my oil feed line may be too small. I dont have any pictures, but if someone is familiar with paintball gun SS lines, its about the same diameter. Should I just buy a larger one?

Im new Great board!! very informative.
Thanks
Garrett

3/8" is what mine is, I beleive. Now that I think about, I don't really remember. But I think it's 3/8"..

I don't "paintball" so I don't the size, but you can pull out a tape measure, or a ruler, and see.

lines small because oil pressure on our honda's is quite high. imagine 75psi of oil shooting out a -4an line.. thats a hell of alot of oil.
