    I took mine into an Industrial Hose place and had them made.
    They are now good for 3750 psi, which should be enough.

    i have access to a crimper at work, i just don't remember the type and size of fitting that goes into the block and cooler such as 10 or 12 ORB to JIC. I need some for a project so the length of the lines will be different then stock.

    you are speaking of the OIL cooler lines? I have a set of life time oil cooler lines that leaked that I havn't returned .... the fittings are attached. you can get the correct sizing from them. Are you near Edmonton anytime soon? I can meet you somewhere :)

    These were the ORIGINAL lines supplied by JSTVP. He has replaced them with perfect ones! The originals were a bad batch. Get Tony's and you can never go wrong! He is good people! :)
