Hey guys if you need seamless stainless tubing and compression fittings just pm me with the sizes and angles and I'll see what I can do for free:thumbup:

Edit: This goes for anyone I have tons of leftovers

wow are you serious redline!? that would be awesome! Can you bend the pipes or are they prebent?


Ray, I am going up to work on the car this weekend installing the slimfan and getting a few other things ready.... what kind of measurements should I take? After I take some measurements I think I will pull that oil pan off so it's ready to to tap or drill or whatever....

I really can't bend it without being there but I can cut certain lengths for you if you let me know what you need. I mostly have 3/8 seamless tubing that I can cut to length for you but you will need to find a tubing bender and flare block unless I come out and assist as a favor. I will need you to think it out what fittings & reducers/bells you might need to make it as streamline as possible! PM the details and we'll work it out:thumbup:

Edit: These fittings/tubings can handle 300psi.

leave the pan on the car with 2 bolts, we will bend the stuff when i get there

will do... redline thanks so much man I really appriciate it!

should I order the fittings to tap the pan awhile? Can I get them thru you?

RayArroyo 03-23-2007 12:02 PM

we need to order the fittings and all lets get this thing done!!!

Philly-Night-SR 03-25-2007 03:08 PM

Took some measurements and I think this looks to be the best solution...

from what I know you want it to be more of a vertical drop to the pan. The 90* turn isnt optimal. Should work still I assume.

good luck with the project

Philly-Night-SR 03-25-2007 04:07 PM

Dirt.... I know man but I kinda have no real options.... That pipe leading to the pan isn't going to be completely horizontal.. I will be able to give it a 15-20 degree slope back into the pan... should be enough I think...

teh DIRT 03-25-2007 04:11 PM

yeah thats a good idea. just keep it at a slight angle to continue the downward flow.
