Sorry for sounding stupid but could do with a bit of help. I am wanting the braided oil pipe from the filter housing to the block. It looks like this one will fit strait on (eBay item 222554277740 ) however John speed also do one £20 cheaper however has a different oval end on I can't work out how it would fit. Any help appreciated
TIA

Do you still have the old metal pipe

I just bought the pipe and fittings off the auction sites and assembled it myself, was a nice little project and works and looks good too

That looks very nice mate yeah I still have the metal pipe on. I have a feeling they are 11/16. Think I'll just pay the extra £20 and buy the ones with unions already on! Maybe one day put a race filter housing on 😜 Thanks for your help guys

I had a custom one made that is similar to the above and it is SOOOO much better then that damn factory fitted pipe. I ust never trusted it. I think this a very good idea to install to help elliminate any problems down the road.
