All, As you may have seen I'm currently fitting Barbz's old manifold. I have already encounter clearance problems (water rail being modified as we speak), however I now also find that the oil feed pipe is too short (just) rather than bodge it on with BFBI (brute force and bloody ignorance) does somebody sell/make a longer oil feed pipe?.
Answers most welcome
Cheers Tim

Is it a GT28 turbo youre fitting? I had to get a slightly longer oil feed pipe for mine, take the old one to a machine shop or something and they should be able to make up a longer one for you.

GT28: It's possible to rotate the oilpipe at the block mount to get it pretty much spot on! C:a 30deg anticlockwise as I remember it.

Hi Per, Thanks but I've looked at this option and it's not possible. I think it's because I'm running a tubular manifold which is ever so slightly different from std mounting position. This is turning out to be FUN so to say.
I'm getting there but the coupes putting up a pretty good fight!!!

I got the Nissan bolt and "joined together" copper washers, and used a slightly longer than standard Nissan S14 hose from hosesolutions (none on eBay at mo' but seller is still there)
