custom oil line, how & where 2 get it?
I need to replace this oil line
on the 82 SC 'cause it's rubbing on my B&B Triflow, so I need braided stainless flexible line, it has to be 1" in diameter and about 2 ft in lenghts, where can I get this custom line? Many thanks in advance

You could probably buy braided hose and some right angle attachments and duplicate what the factory looks like but in something more wear and contact resistant.
Do a google search under aeroquip and you'll find several places that sell the stuff.

Are there any places on i-net that sells it? I did quick search, but most of the places don't carry hoses 1" in diameter, the biggest they have are 3/8" (for Hondas and Acuras) If anybody knows where to get it, please H-E-L-P ! Thanks

Why not just go to your local hydraulic shop and have them make up what you need?

I did the google search under aeroquip hose, as I mentioned above, and these guys are the third company on the results list. They have upwards of 2 3/4" hose.
http://www.bakerprecision.com/earls1.htm You'll see several more if you take the time to do the search for yourself.

Harry has the right idea. Ask a local garage where they go for custom brake and AC hoses.

ah, better yet, check eBay. The NASCAR guys are always ditching old hose and fittings, you can make a killing.
