NEAT!!!

I've been wondering about redoing my oil lines and wondered how much work it would be to make clean/tidy ends like you've done.

Didja do that yourself or have a shop put them together?

making them myself... there really is nothing to it. The vise jaws and aluminum wrenches work great though for assembly.

Wow! Those look great! Where did you buy the lines and fittings from? I am running new lines for my S1 build.

I bought everything from Summitracing.com

I really wanted to go with black nylon as im not a huge fan of the look of Braided stainless.

Hose and ends are Fragola Perforamnce. I just found out this morning that Fragola is right in my backyard.

How hard is it to install the fittings into the oil tank?

Interesting heel guards. Can you tell us anything about them, e.g. home made or purchased etc.

the fittings for the oil tank are just standard straight thread o-ring fittings. I believe 9/16-18

Heel guard is a design im working on.. its just a prototype i printed to test fit and see if the sizing and angle looked right.

Sometimes I think this forum needs a like button. I have nothing to add other than I support this endeavor.
