turbo oil feed line

[racemybuick]

Has anyone replaced their oil feed line to the turbo? Is there a replacement to buy? Can I use a steel braided line? I figure pressure would be a concern, but I want to get this line out. It has a minor kink in it, and I cannot afford any problems later down the line. So, what can I use???

poston's sells a replacement turbo oil feed line, but it's like $24. You could probably buy a tool and bend your own for cheaper than that. I think some have gone the braided line route with AN fittings or something, remember seeing pics of it somewhere. i am considering going the braided route myself eventually, because it was a pain getting the hard line to line up perfectly.

where can I get that braided line?

Thank you!
