Mine is 8an stainless braided. All you need to do is setup your oil pan for a -AN fitting. Buy the hose ends and 12" of braided hose. Put it together and your golden.

Dont mean to hijack your thread but i dont want to make another either.
I plan on getting just a braided oil feed.
What kind of rubber hose would work for a return? Fuel line? I've got a half inch npt tap in my oil pan and i'm getting ready to pick up my fittings as soon as i can put the turbo and manifold on for mock up. Will fuel line be fine without melting from heat from the turbine housing?
Goodnight sweetheart...yes its time to go...bum bum bum bum bum...good night sweetheart yes I am one little a$$hole......bum bum bum bum....

Fuel line for a return line? Joking? You do know fuel hose is pretty damn small right?
If anything, use heater hose. I still would go with a stainless setup though as my experience with heater hose sucks.

Heater hose wont hold up to oil.
Fuel hose is available in just about any size.
I am running -12an fittings and a .75" ID turbo drain line that was originally marked as braided diesel fuel line. If it can hold up to diesel, it should be fine for oil. Got it from napa, has a nice black textile braided covering, about $7/ft for the .75" ID ($5/ft for 5/8", $4/ft for 1/2"). Its a pretty decent hose, seems just as nice as the Earls Performance line I replaced with it.
