All,
Any idea where to get replacement oil cooler hoses for an SV? Along the same lines, does anyone know the size designation of the oil cooler fittings? The threads on the cooler itself and the jam nuts are damaged and need to be sent through a die/tap to clean them up. The threads are nothing I can find around here and the standard response appears to be "we can cut them off and braze on new american fittings." Of course this misses the point that the other end of the hose still needs to have the correct threading.
My guess is that the threads are British Standard Whitworth or British Standard Fine, but a call to Rick at SS left the question unresolved. Any and all help would be appreciated.
