SS OMP lines for the 20B ?

Is there any company that makes the OMP lines for the 20B in stainless steel?

I'm sure they're made using off the shelf parts. The problem I see with that is it will be more difficult to determine if the pump is in fact moving oil through the lines. Personally that is more important to me given that I have near seen or heard of a stock line failing.

Right, I see your point.

I'm looking to replace mine because the ones that are on it are all yellow and brittle. Where would I find stock replacement lines for the 20B?

Here I rebuilt the lines in my Vert this same way. Total cost was less than 20 bucks. Oh yea, don't use those stainless steel lines as CCarlisi stated. They are also a waist of money because the lines aren't even pressurized that much.

Cool! Thanks.

I realize that the SS lines are more for "show", but thats what this motor is being built for....lots of show, with lots of go

I just learned that the first shop of nit-wits that 'attempted' to build my sub frame burned through the OMP lines with a torch!?!? I guess I need to find a set of replacement lines too . . . .
