I just switched from a T3 to Super 20g and the line that was going from the oil pan to the turbo melted/started to leak. Who sells a line that won't do this? the line I had was steel braided and rubber coated. the line is clamped on each side VS the screw in type that was on there before.

Either buy a steel braided line, or buy an earls flame guard for the rubber coated lines. It's like a sleeve that slides over the line to protect it from heat, there are prob other company's that make the same product.

I got a couple of heat resistant oil lines that I took off an airplane and they work great I'll sell you one if you want it.
