    Does anyone make their own SS high pressure oil lines?

    Does anyone make their own Braided Stainless Steel high pressure oil lines?

    I was looking for a way to run a line from the stock oil presser switch location to a 1/8 NPT oil pressure sender without having to use 4-AN lines and a adapters. Ideally have a M12x1.5 make crimped onto one end and a 1/8 NPT female on the other end.

    Can anyone point me in the right direction?

    Thanks!

    Check out techflex they make cable and hose sleeving for almost any application. Not sure on the fittings though.

        From what you discribe if sounds like you want a distribution block. Bimmer world makes a nice one.

        For lines I used to use Goodridge lines but my local guy stopped carrying them ("Ricers dont buy nice hardware"). I Use some aeroquip stuff now but I think I liked goodridge better. Wish I could find a good place to buy them in the states.

          Goto a hose shop. Industrial grade stuff at a non specialized store price. Plus most shops can make it while you wait.
          Ma che cazzo state dicendo? :|

            Yes ~$60. Not the ned of the world, but -6 is over kill, and the ends are - well not what I was hoping for. I guess I wanted to crimp my own end.

            Distribution block? I don't want a distribution block. You're silly.

            None local to me.

            I guess I look around more. I'm looking to buy the lines, connectors and crimper myself.
