Oil Cooler elbows

Is there a male -female elbow, that you can screw in some brass threaded pipe. Weld it in with easyflo, having already turned the tapered seat into the outer end of the pipe. (I know you'd rather buy the right ones)

Or.....you could sell me those ones

I might have spares, but they will have to wait a week until I get back from warmer climes (mexico). I can let you know then. Mind you, it's pretty damn cold out here these days, so no guarantees how long I will be willing to spend in the shed looking, nor if I'll even return from Cancun.

Hi Rob.

Thanks so much. That would be great. Take a propane heater with you

On another note I used the nuts/nipples that came with the elbows to make up my long lines and got everything soldered together. Tomorrow Im going to try and make up my vent tubes for the fuel tanks.

Hey Lynn. No problem at all. Was only trying to "bug" you.

Im trying to figure out what goes between the oil cooler fins and the mounting brackets. When I took mine apart there seemed to be some kind of thin rubber/cloth wrapped around it. Sadly it was too far gone to be of any help in figuring out what it was.

Can anyone suggest what to use to replace it as I don't want to crush the fins with the hose clamps.

This leads into my second question... does anyone know of a place that sells the vintage style Jubilee clamps. I can only seem to find the modern ones that have the tightening screw fully enclosed.
