I went all the way when it comes to oil lines.
- all new lines
- found NOS oilcooler
- all new hardware, every nut, bolt and rubber
- stainless clamps everywhere.
- new hoses
- new seals and gauge
- fully sanded down the tank, blasted and painted
- sanding the piping back to it’s copper state.
- ultrason the tank for 5 hours
- flush many times and inspect with camera.
Some pics to give you and idea. Don’t like to do quick amd sloppy 😊.
Stage 1.
Powdercoated but not bulky. All in the prepwork
All connecters done, sanded and polished
Ultrason to be sure all is out.
No risk here amd triple check
New seals and bolts
Thermostat and all hoses.
New one…
New oilcooler, rubbers, seals and bolts.

- when paint is only removed chemically you have not the right adherence for powdercoat paint and so once some stonechips will hit your tank, the paint might come off very quick. The strength of powdercoating lies in the fact that it is durable and does not chip off quickly when hit with something. With improper prep you loose all of this.
- A filter between tank and engine, sure, but there is more then 1 oil line leaving your tank. 🙏🏻

There are many lines coming/going and I have original filter and 993 style filter. Thats enough for me.
