Does anyone know what fitting to get for the block for my top mount oil line setup. I know the block is a M12x1.00, but I dont know where to get a fitting for it to make the line. Any help is appreciated. thanks

Earl's part # 9919BFE

It's an M12 x 1.00 to -4AN adapter.

so the adapter would go into that 90degree thing that comes out of the block right? or does it replace it?

You'll keep the 90* block fitting.

I've got two of those 90* fittings and I don't think they are a restrictor any more than what the inverted flare is restricting it. It is a pretty small opening though, it's hard to tell.

Thanks Jon, I'll check for it today at work.

psst.. what's up beans! I'm a firefighter in Mboro... I might have seen you drive around.. I live in Hendersonville though.. what color is your car?! I remember seeing a Blue 240 with an S15 Front end driving around while we were flowing hydrants one day.

Hey whats up, I have a dark grey fastback. But the guy with the blue fastback with the s15 front is a very good friend of mine. He has an RB20 in it. We should meet up sometime.

cool, I figured you would know him since the turbo 240 crowd isn't that big. Everyone I work with drives a truck so I don't have any car buddies in mboro. By the way, i'm a female, didn't know if you knew that. I don't ever go to mboro unless I have to work or go to a class, maybe when I get my KA-T finished you could swing by the fire station or something?

Yea that sounds good, Just let me know when you get it done or need some help. I have to good freinds that have ka-t's. One has a gt28r on his and the other is currently building his. By the way theres nothing wrong with a female that knows her 240's.

Wrong with it? Crap, that makes you the coolest girl around in my book. Half the reason I got married to my wife is because she can drive a car in an autoX faster than I can!

lol float... i think that's going to be something I can't sacrifice wanting in a person .. (mate) they have to be mechanically inclined..last guy I was with didn't even know how to change his oil (what a loser)... anyway, that's great to know... My e-mail is [email protected]... I know this thread has already gone off topic but I'll save it ...I wish there were PM's. I'll have to ask you through e-mail.
