Oil feed restrictors
Question!
What are you guys using?
-3AN or -4AN feed lines
Are you using any type of restrictor to prevent smoking?
Im using a T-76 F1-Trim
Im now ordering all the oiling parts for the build
Thanks,
Derek

Sweet! The reason why i purchased -4an was incase i drilled a little too big. If i drill too big ill just drill the hole 1/4" and use various size NX jets. I Dont think you can use NX jets with -3AN.

3/64 .0469
1/16 .0625
The regulator on my Function7 flange is basically a a 1/16 inch hole which can be drilled out to increase oil flow.
Hmmm, currently your running smaller than 1/16"
Whats your oil pressure like?
Im installing a ported Melling Oil Pump on the 370 im building so i may have to go with a small hole as well.
Thanks,
Derek

I'v been running a -4 with a 1/16 hole (welded and drilled in the npt/an fitting on the turbo) for three years now with no problems. When I was told to use 1/16 drill bit I thought it had to be too small, but it works great not one bit of smoke.
