I use goodridge banjo and AN-4 banjo bolt with crush washers, and AN -4 ss- braided goodrige hose. my unit feeds an oil cooler and a submicronic oil filter from motorguard.

 

Pictures ?

 

i'm not motivated enough to take pictures, sorry, but here is the goodridge cataloge

goodgridge or earl's racing carries the motorcycle banjo fittings in metric to AN.


the -4 AN lines are easy to make if you buy the rebuildable threaded fittings for AN banjo bolts since this is a critical area, only use steel or stainless steel banjos and bolts. most of the motorcycle parts are alluminum I don't trust that stuff..

for my oil cooler and filter I feed oil back into the motor via driver's side valve cover, which I simply tap the magnesium valve cover to take a 1/4" npt taper thread to -4AN fitting

remember if your using this for just oil pressure line to a gauge then you can get away with smaller AN hose. but this motor puts out over 130psi oil pressure so it must be AN line, DO NOT USE RUBBER HOSE when tapping into this port.

the rest you can use your imagination.

 

Im using teflon SS braded lines -3AN High pressure,high heat All Stainless fittings , I should be ok ..
thanks for the info ....
