[QUOTE="chark_mandler, post: 171530, member: 2963"] The spares co sell oil feed hose that is 7/16" ID. I really don't want to pay for an A66 feed pipe and would rather use a banjo at the crankcase end with hose all the way to the UFM. There are suppliers that sell 1/4" banjos with a 3/8" pipe outlet but none that I can find that sell with a 7/16" pipe outlet so thought I would make one. Measuring up I've noticed that the UFM side of A44 has an ID of only .270" and this is similar for the smallest part of T32. So I'm not sure as to why the ID of the hose is so big - is this to accommodate fluctuations in pumping? I can make a banjo for 7/16" hose but easier to buy one for 3/8" hose which is still bigger than the ID of A44 / T32. Is 3/8" too small? [/QUOTE]
