VA touring oil lines for R1 dual coolers

Anyone know if the return TOURING oil lines will connect to the R1 dual oil hardlines? My engine is sitting outside the car now and after bolting the hardlines to the car frame, I'm wondering if that return line is long enough.

I recently ordered some new ones from Ray, and it seems they are different. Same price but he told me they are a different part #

Why use the leaky crap OEM lines? I replaced with AN fittings & braided steel. No leaks and quality. My build thread has a parts list. It's in my Sig.

Never had a problem with the stock oil lines leaking, as long as the clips are on correctly.

Personally I've never had a problem with the oem R1 setup I have so have just never gotten around to putting in braided lines I guess.

Hey Rusty, its sucks that we didn't get ours with our purchase since we both bought from 87GTR from Japan. Anyways, japan2LA has 10 of them, so hit him up if you still need one [$45shipped], I never checked with Ray, but I think a new one is about $100

Awesome thanks for the info. I'll be messaging him in a few.

I guess the snacks were a replacement.

The stock lines are good quality in my experience. The thing that makes them leak is more like people not knowing how to remove them and tweaking them during engine removal, etc.

When I pick up the dual coolers they only give me the two coolers and hard line that goes across.
