I hope this message comes across well, the FoT formatting doesn't seem to
carry over from MS Word well.  Forgive me of it is indecipherable and/or
incomprehensible...

I'm finally assembling a Kastner Octopus system for my GT6.

I'm assembling an octopus using the aluminum manifold Steve Smith gave me. I'm
plumbing it with Parker Push-Lok hose & fittings, which are rated to 350 psi
and the hose bends easier than braided steel. I'll back the ends up with hose
clamps too.

Opinions of the correctness of this?

A lot of oil plumbing under the hood:

 *   -10 oil cooler lines
 *   remote oil filter mounted on firewall
 *   oil pressure gauge line
 *   oil temp gauge line
 *   -10 Accusump feed line & anti-backflow valve
 *   -10 main oil supply line
Fittings, adapters, tee's, etc...

Big VARA race weekend coming right up at Willow Springs. Kas featured all
Triumph race, enduro, and I hope a good amount of madcap antics & wacky
hijinx.
