5/8 BSP Oil Fittings
Discussion
I've decided to treat my car to some new hoses on its dry sump system, and I have been trying to procure some shiney red & blue alloy hose ends in 5/8 BSP.
After 2 weeks of promising Demon Tweeks have been let down by Mocal/Think Automotive so I am back to square one.
It seems that in the 13 years since I made up the hoses on the car, BSP has become somewhat obselete.
Does anyone know where I may find some BSP 5/8 fittings??? I need 7 x 90deg, 2 x straight and 1 x 45deg. It should be noted if rifling through your spares, that they look very similar to -10 JIC except the hose ends are female (convex) not male.
Alternatively, does anyone know where to get the -10 JIC outlet flanges which bolt on the oil pump etc. at a reasonable price? Steel or alloy will do, then I can go buy some JIC fittings. SBD want £22 each, whihc seems extortionate!

Arnie,
How tight can the bend be? I may well have both tap and die and ought to be able to make something up from billet alloy. Only problem is that I don't have a drill to drill curved holes, hence the bend will be pretty sharp.
I'll have to check in the garage before promising too much though.
