wanted: pix of early S oil line routing

does anyone have (or can you point me to) the factory oil line routing for an early S ? looking for a car where the oil lines run *through* the longitudinal. (did the factory actually do this, or did i just dream it?)
i'm specifically interested in the area where the lines exit the longitudinals @ the rear.
justing fishing around for ideas
all feedback appreciated.
TIA
jerry

Shaun;
WAY cool!
BTW, did the factory bury the lines in the longitudinal on the early cars or did
i just make that up?
once i'm done w/ the oil system the body transformation will begin.
i'm not chomping at the bit... uh... yet
big thanks!

Alan posted these over @ early S

wanted: pix of early S oil line routing

great detail, interesting design, but i'm not sure it gives me much to go on.
i'll probably go w/ what i've already discussed w/ a certain Mr. Moreland
what i've got so far;

Jerry,

Because you're using the '72 tank, the early S plumbing in that other thread really won't be relavent to your case.

Your challenge will be mating up the through-rocker pipe to the bottom of the '72 tank. It's always a very short hose, and in your case your through-rocker line is starting a couple inches higher than the normal '72 pipe. You will need to be creative here.

Chuck;
i *think* there is just enough room for an elbow & a straight to fit between those 2 points. you're right about the factory setup. totally different.
thanks!

hi Shaun;
after seeing Alan's posting over on EarlyS the OEM setup is way different from what will work in my application. as someone pointed out earlier "...be creative"
thanks for the offer!

Jerry,

I started to post these images on EarlyS but Alan’s images are great.

wanted: pix of early S oil line routing

Here are the images from the ’70-’71 911 parts manual:

Alan, it would be useful for you to post your excellent images here also.


Now we need images of the pipes out of the chassis.

The thermostat and pressure relief valve were commercially available at the time (’69-’71) parts.

These are some of the special pieces that make a ’69-’71 911S an “S”.

Best,
Grady

One of the reasons I didn’t post these on EarlyS is my inability (dumb ol’ me) to alternate text and images.

Jerry,
Here's a thread I posted with detailed pics/description of my ER install on my '72 coupe. Not through-the-body lines, but you get the idea.
