got a new 13row cooler off of ebay... how do i find out what connection sizes it has? Also, where do i go to get braided hoses made for it to my lengths, i'm thinking of mounting it on one of the brace bars.

So i need to know the sizes of the connections on the block, oil filter and how to find the sizes on the cooler.

if its the common mocal cooler suppiled by most places just order some pipes from a mini suppies shop, but your only going to get a certain length.

what i did was order the small set and carfully cut the outer crimps off each end of the pipes then you are left with the unions, for block and cooler). then i just bought a couple of meters of 1/2 inch(i fink) oil pipe and cut to lenght

no longer a series, but still 1.3 turbo.

i can get anything you like including the ones that the mini places have *wink* but at nicer prices. Ive got to get a set for Dan anyway.

Customs hoses are no problem but check thread sizes and lengths as custom hoses are obviously non-refundable *smiley*

ciil, found out that my oil cooler has 1/2 BSP, what sort of price are we looking at for some pipes long enough to reach the left hand brace bar (as you look at the front) in steel braided?

what length is that? *smiley*

give me sizes and prices and ill see what i can do.

Minispares std length ones are £22.72 + £6ish postage. if they're not much longer id say it would be the same but postage would be cheaper! *smiley*
