Hi guys,

Well it looks like i'll be importing a GTK 500 in the next few weeks (if anyone knows the best price to get one at i'd be grateful!) and have all the info i want apart from the oil and water feed and return sizes...

All my lines will be aeroquip where possible and just want to make sure i don't need to import anything special at the same time!

Cheers

The oil feed line is -3 AN, the oil return line should be -10 AN or larger. The water lines are -16 AN

-16?

Crikey - Seems very large

Do you happen to know the threads into the cartridge by any chance Robert?

Thanks for your help so far

The oil feed is a 1/8 NPT, the return is just a barb fitting typically that is secured with a flange to the bearing housing. The water lines are 16mm banjo bolts I believe.

Ah - 16mm - makes a lot more sense

FYI Turbonetics makes a water line kit for their turbos and also has oil lines available. One sec and I'll look up the water line kit part number.
