Stainless return line
Quick ?
What stainless return lines are best? I see some that have threaded fittings on the ends.
Then I see some that have no threaded fittings and just slide over a ridged (almost like the ting you use to fix a busted water hose?) tapered piece, w just a clamp on it.
Which is better?
I would think the threaded kind at first, but then Im like fawk, that ---- can leak where the threaded part connects to the stainless hose!
Currently I have a stock greddy kit rubber GANGSTER *** return line on my ----, and it pours oil out to the point where i smell it on my ------- turbo.

Re: Stainless return line
The barbed fittings are fine as long as you use the correct size tubing with the fitting and clamp it with a hose clamp. The ones with the threaded ends already on them should be great as long as they were made properly. Either one should be sufficient. Barbed fittings should be a little cheaper and don't look as cool. There really shouldn't be that much pressure on the return line.

Advanced auto mr gasket braided barbed return ftw. $19.99.
A pimped out -10an setup would work fine too. Depends on how much you want to spend.
Cheap fix for barbed fittings leaking=black rtv and round ring clamps. Not to be confused with clip clamps, t-bolts or worms.....

I think I am going Fast Turbo lines, he said for black and silver ones its 70 shipped, and that comes w the part that welds to my oil pan (currently JB welded....funny thing? Its NOT leaking from there lol, but from where the rubber hose has eaten ---- on the turbo!) and the line/ end fittings....
I just want something that is NOT going to leak at all ugh.

Ive had really good luck with just 3/8" push-lok hose. Doesnt even need clamps, I put em on anyway though. Ive used it on my last 3 turbo car builds. Never had a problem. Never had a leak. ***** cheap as hell too. Asheville hose FTW!

His ---- works great, no leaks for 3 years now on my car.

Also, if I sold Stainless lines on the net, I would search every forum i was a member of daily for new threads containing the word "Stainless" to promote my sales...imho that would be a smart move.
But, that is just me though!
