Oil Supply Line Fitting Problem

[Jim P]

I have an IO-360-M1 with C/S and there's an issue with the Van's oil cooler supply line clearing the constant speed control cable bracket.

Per Dan's website, he went with the 45-deg. engine fitting and a 45-deg hose fitting for the oil supply line to the cooler. Has anyone used straight fittings here and actually have it work?

Thanks,

Jim

with the straight back style of oil filter adaptor (already had a stright end fitting on the hose)....Incidently nor would a stright, or 90 deg.

I had to weld a 45 deg on the end of a straight at about a total angle of 60 deg...

Phew!
