Hey all, I am upgrading my leaking oil cooler lines, and was thinking about getting some stainless lines...BUT I was thinking..why can't I just make my own? I have all the tools..and I have about 10 feet of -10AN stainless lines(for fuel system in my buddies FD)..could I use that? I seriously have no clue as to what size my stock lines are, but they look about a -10? Or so....I'm shooting in the dark here. Someone please help a brotha' out! Thanks!

Why did you have to make it longer? I thought they were stock sized?

The Racing Beat and Mazdatrix lines are -10. You will need adapters to connect the lines to the front/rear cover. Check Racing Beat or Mazdatrix's website but the adapters are one 16mm to -10 and one 18mm to -10.
