Yes to the .040 restrictor, John.  I had the aluminum 1/4 NPT to -6 male AN
fitting welded closed, then drilled the .040 hole through the fitting. No
need to add extra fittings or connections where they're not needed. I made
the restriction in the fitting on the 90 degree oil filter adapter, so in
case the hose fails, the restrictor is before the hose.  Thanks for your
input.  Paul Conner
