1930 used a 1/4" oil pressure line. 1931 used an 1/8" oil pressure line. The gages look the same except for the fitting in the back so it can be confusing. Then there is the 3/16" line from the oil distributor valve to the rocker shaft. Confused yet?


How Sweet the roar of a Chevy four!

Yep, as Chipper stated, in 1930 the oil line is 1/4", not 1/8". laugh laugh laugh
