[QUOTE="craig, post: 147586, member: 1959"] The newly rebent Comet to Twin oil feed line is usable, but not what I would like. This bend pattern does not clear the kick start cover as I would prefer. This feed line needs to be outboard of the return line. [ATTACH type="full" alt="20211104_OilFeedProgress1.jpg"]45566[/ATTACH] A couple of bend session using the 12mm shaft holder and the feed line path is closer to my needs. The KS split cover top section is now accessible [ATTACH type="full" alt="20211106_OilFeedProgress2.jpg"]45567[/ATTACH] Here is how my pieces sized for this oil feed line. Just received my A44AS today and it measures 12.12mm on the end to be inserted in the hose A65. My herringbone hose A65 is larger than 3/8" by a 1/16", new hose I have had for couple years. Back when new herringbone hose was common. [ATTACH type="full" alt="20211106_OilFeedPieces1.jpg"]45568[/ATTACH] Assembled oil feed line using 10½" of hose , 2 ferrules, heat, grunt force.
