I was planning on buying some RacingBeat oil hose adapter for my car and they're $11 each, I need 4 of them so that'd make it $44+shipping. That's way too expensive for something that I can probably get in a local hardware store. I know that I need to get 3 16mm to 10mm, and 1 18mm to 10mm. I was wondering if any of you guys know what's the size of the thread? I will be heading down to Homedepot or something to find out if they have it but I need to know the size of the thread and the length. If you guys know, please input. Thanks in advance.

Home depot doesn't have AN fittings. Sorry. The ones you're looking at are probably the same steel ones I bought and they are worth it just buy them. What isn't worth it is the steelbraided line price. Especially since mine barely fit. You can get the steel braided hose and fittings from and place like earl's. I went to a local race car fab place to get my fittings when I changed the location of the cooler to further into the nose. You are looking for -10 AN fittings for the hose side and the adapters are like you said 16mm to -10 AN and 18mm to -10AN get new crush washers as well. You'll have to measure your hose lengths since I don't know where you'r is. Also get a 90 degree fitting for the rear of the engine and I would get a 45 degree fitting for the front. Theirr kits come with a straight fitting in the front I think it fits a bit better with a 45. Every car is different though so see what you need before you buy as the fittings are a bit expensive. You probably will never have to replace them though so keep that in mind as well.

I had no idea that you can get those angled... where can I get those angled ones?

Do you mean the blue part (adpater) of the lines? I already have those, I think. I will double check.

There is seriously so many places to buy this stuff it's stupid. I think summit has it as well.

Aeromotive is another brand, russel's is another brand

AN fittings are a type of standard like NPT (National pipe thread)

I guess I wasn't being clear enough... I was asking the what's the size for the thread. I already got everything else... the thread for the engine... and to the hose's adapter.

For example, 12x1.5mm...

Oh... I found this... http://www.jegs.com/webapp/wcs/store...56667_-1_10019

Not sure which ones you need I just bought those from mazdatrix last year. I can't remember which ones, but it tells you on their web site.

I went with Racingbeat's adapters since I can't seem to find the 10AN to 16MM on the jeg's website. Thanks for all the help, guys.

The threads are Normal Pipe Thread. NPT. standard across the board. Not like lugnuts and bolts. Just a warning for everyone, if you can, use Russell's AN fittings, not Summit. They are cheaper but they aren't as well made, and the elbows tend to bend when tightening. I replaced mine with a Russell's piece and it's much more robust.
