SS oil metering lines?

I'm pretty sure I've seen stainless steel oil metering lines but I don't know where? Anyone have them? Where do I buy them?

I think if you send your old lines you get $20 off or something

I just purchased 32' of this 1/8th" ID teflon SS braided line. Obviously, I will want to offer these to Houston area folks for the ease of shipping since I see most area enthusiasts at the Houston RX-7 Club meetings. I am also further interrogating the company I purchased the line from to see if they can get some more. They told me they accidentaly ordered this line, and do not normally stock it.

Uh, I was thinking that silicone hose was not compatiable with oil.

I remember I used silicone hose for the oil breather....and I could actually see the oil on the outside of the hose.

How does it hold up in your application?

Or are you using Viton hose?

...yea i wouldn't be using vac line for OMP lines. I'm also betting that he isn't using viton because $12/ft is way too expensive for the 2nd gen guys. haha

Yep. I am here. $2 credit per end ($4 per line) so for FC guys it's $18. Believe it or not the only reason I go into that much math detail is to keep from explaining it in detail over emails
So it's $70 for a set of FC's if you provide the ends.

Woah dude, you lost me. You mean $16 credit right?. Oh and I did a series 4 swap, but somehow my oil lines are still good! I'll get the SS ones though, they're sweet.

I bought a set of lines off of scali and they worked fine. Fitment was not an issue. The quality was very good.

I really don't think that you need SS lines for the OMP, but at the same price as the mazda plastic ones, you really can't go wrong. I think the only thing I enjoyed about new mazda ones, was that they were clear and pre-molded. Not only did they fit extremley snug, you could tell if you were getting oil to the engine
