I’m guessing the new system will be a total loop of AN10 1500mm through 6 90deg fittings Mocal 44 row cooler (<6psi pressure drop) and remote spin on K&N oil filter.

Do you have really long runs of oil lines?

Hi guys
I measured the oil passage diameters (bearing and regulator passages) under the oil filter pedestal of a Renesis today.
They are 10mm in case anyone else was wondering.
I don’t know what possessed me all those years ago, but I plumbed the oil system in AN-8.
I contest Neil’s claim of being the greatest idiot.
In the process of rebuilding it with a AN-10 plumbing and using a Mocal 44 row cooler.

Still close to finished!

Cheers
