I just built a 3.0 with a 70/71 911 trans. The under bell didn't work because the clutch cable anchor so owner went to elephant and got a metal, over the top oil scavenge line, like the rubber hose used in the years.
Very nice piece and did what we needed. Bruce |

That may be your best solution, depending. My '71 had the oil line, actually a hose, going over the transmission. I used stainless braided aeroquip hose on my car. The year car you are using and the oil tank configuration, may be a consideration on what type of oil line you choose to use.

@ Bruce; anything, correction, *everything* that Chuck does will be spot on. his list of solutions has expanded quite a bit since the last time I looked.
@ Gordon... you're right. my application is more custom than not. ie; '66 tub w/ bastardized '72 reservoir & twin front coolers. hose over the trans it is. now to actually make it all happen ![]() thanks guys.

![]() ![]() Since you have a custom oil system, I may be able to help. Here is my Cross-Over hose in M30 similar to the 70-71 911 factory configuration: ![]() This one ends at the Oil Cooler as the factory Cross Under line does. I can make yours to order. You provide the measurements or I send you one partially assembled and you make the fitment and return it for final crimping. Also available in Yellow Zinc and/or Braided SS hose. Here is an example of my Hi-Rise Hose set for extra "Fat Tire" clearance: ![]() Priority Mail is reasonable for the extra shipping and the result is exactly to your design.
