correct size so I bought a length. I forget the pressure rating now but it was substantial - I think it was 400 psi or more.

<p class="MsoNormal">I talked to Rick at SS last night. The Ballast resistor is in his catalog but he no longer carries it. So I ordered the NPD T-Bird part.<o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Also, he no longer carries the steel braid oil gauge line, citing a bad experience with one that leaked, an apparent workmanship issue. Didn't CAT have one? Same part? Same problem?<o:p></o:p></p>
