Re: 1970 K20 Z62 Full Restoration

Piddling post #2. I've put copper oil pressure lines on previous trucks...but I believe they were steel from the factory. It's hard to get a reasonable amount of 1/8" steel line at a reasonable price for this small job. So I cheated...I got aluminum line from an HVAC supplier. At least it'll be silver.

I got Weatherhead compression nuts from NAPA as suggested by LockDoc in this thread: https://www.67-72chevytrucks.com/vbo...d.php?t=613238

The engine fitting and union to the gauge line are OE.

A 1-7/16" socket was about a perfect fit circumference-wise to make the loops.
