#69119, "Alternatives to HRC's blue oil drain line?"


          

Has anyone with a HRC kit done something different with the oil drain line? I can't imagine the line will last forever with it resting on the waterpipe, and in close proximity of the DP.

HRC list the line to be around 30$. Kinda pricy IMO.

Just want to hear other alternatives. I was thinking of looking for a SS braided line with teflon inner. Whacha think?

Is your drain line breaking apart of something?

hard to see, but its the HRC hose barb plate (hose barb cut off) drilled and tapped for a 3/8(?)npt to 8an fitting. I have the same fitting braized into the oil pan.

Yo Kaiser,

Teflon line is bank!!! especially in -10/-12 sizes. Fittings for teflon line are special too. I was planning on trying to run an aluminum hardline from the turbo to the pan. This would solve ALL heat, temp, and age related failures.

James, if you your project comes out to be successful, I'll buy one. Thus far I like the idea of a -8AN drain flange to some SS braided lines.

HRC's line is on $5.99, i got a 15" for $6.25 b/c of the extra 3", they will last a long time and it is not $30. I just bought one a few weeks ago. Shipping would probably bring it up to $10-12 bucks.
