Banjo bolt kit help
Hey! So I'm getting a new turbo oil feed line and I need a banjo bolt kit, what's the stock banjo bolt size? I'm stumped on that. Any help would be awesome!

The 87-91 turbo 13b block's oil feed hole is 12mm x 1.5.

It will have a couple of leftover tubes attached to it afterward, and if that bothers you it is easy enough to cut them off with a dremel tool and a cutoff wheel. Why spend money to replace something that isn't broken.
Unless you're making your own line out of SS braided hose, some of the aftermarket pre-fabbed hoses you can buy online are made kind of cheap and I've seen them leak or even burst at the ends where the crimp is not tight enough. Unless you are running an aftermarket turbo in a different location (or requiring a different inlet adapter) I still see no reason to change the stock pipe. It's already there, it's free, you know it fits, it sits low to the block and won't interfere with anything else, and it is failure proof.
