[QUOTE="timetraveller, post: 7763, member: 456"] If anyone out there knows of a stainless steel braided pipe that will fit our original oil feed pipes then I would be very happy to know the source. I fit this type of pipe to the car alternator kits we supply for 'B' and 'C' twins. (It is not needed on 'D' and Comet kits.) I can only source 13 mm internal and 10 mm internal. The latter is too tight but can just be used and the former is too loose and would require a jubilee clip or similar. To get round this I have just provided two kits with s/s braided pipe all the way down to the 1/4" BSP banjo on the engine with both upper and lower ends hydraulically swaged on. The look of this might not be to everyones taste. Incidentally we have found three different sizes of tube on the main oil feed pipes. I guess they were all nominally 3/8" but it seems different wall thickness or quality control problems occurred. [/QUOTE]
