Anybody know where I can get an oil feed pipe like the one in this picture?



I don't want braided and like the subtle black look. Anyone know who sells these?

Cheers,
Mark

It looks like Mocal push fit, you can buy it and make your own

I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.
VEMS + 12 PSI + Liquid Intercooler = Small Bore FUN!

That link is good, thanks!

Anyone know what diameter pipe is required? AN -6 -8 -10?

I will be able to measure the original pipe tomorrow but is bigger diameter better? The flow rate is determined by the pump and the larger diameter will reduce the flow velocity and reduce the pressure drop. Any opinions here?

If your looking for something subtle, why not just use the standard metal pipe?

Good question.... only advantage is that fitting an oil cooler once the engine is in will be easier as half of the fitting will already be in place.

That's just a DIY pipe.

Any of the hose companies sell suitable parts, that looks like -8 hose.

Torques on egay sell most stuff you'd need at fairly sensible prices. I'd opt for the screw fit type hoses as opposed to the push fit though.

eg these fittings and the black nylon overbraid hose

Mini Spares sell black pipe and the hose fittings for fitting an oil cooler, just use that. Its a bit cheaper then buying proper mocal stuff and fancy alloy fittings.
