Guys:
I'm looking for a straight restrictor fitting for my oil pressure line. Wicks sells one (see here) but is brass really OK for this application? I would prefer a straight steel one.
My case has the traditional location but also one pointing straight back. Does anyone see a problem with using the aft-pointing location to pick up oil pressure? I'm assuming that's why a threaded hole is there.
Yeah, I know...would've been easier to install the 45-degree fitting before hanging the engine.![Eek! :eek: :eek:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
