Hi. Would any one know where to buy the brass fitting that goes in to the bottom of the engine oil distributor assembly and has a tube nut for the oil pressure copper pipe that goes to the instrument oil gauge. I also need the tube nut that goes on the oil gauge. If anyone knows the correct name sizes of these fittings it would be most appreciate.
Cheers
Paul

I just bought the kit and put it on my 38 Master.I think it would probably be the same. I bought the kit from Bill's Truck Shop , here in Ontario Canada. The original fittings had a nut with a cone shaped end. The cone would get compressed in diameter and seal the line. With my kit the cone was a separate piece but it worked exactly the same way. There are other fittings being sold for the same setup but the fittings don't quite match and require an additional fitting.

The Filling Station lists a kit that is listed for 1931 -72. Here is a link to a discussion on The Stovebolt of the type of kit fitting that needs an additional fitting. Discussion Here is a link to the vendor where I bought my kit. Bills's truck Shop
