 Thanks to everyone who replied to my inquiry. Mark, your photos are very helpful! I did not know the fitting had a restrictor in it.Gary

Gary,

  

The oil pipe line adaptor on the 100 is different to the 6-cylinder Healeys.

They are a smaller fitting with a tapered BSP fit into the block.

  

The one on the Hundred is a different beast.

It is larger – ½ inch and has straight sides, both ends.  I’ve misplaced my thread gauge but I reckon it might be BSF – 16 tpi.

As it is not pipe thread it has a copper crush washer between the adaptor and the block.

The side with the restrictor hole goes into the block.

  

Cheers

Mark

Surely, someone has the specs on this adaptor?

What are the thread specifications for the adapter/fitting between the block & the oil press. gage flex line on a 100?

I would like to know the TPI, thread form, and are the threads straight or tapered & anything else important that I forgot to ask about.

Thanks,

Gary Hodson
