Be aware that the pressure in the oil filter lines shouldn't be that high. You should be able to use a good quality non-braided type hose (don't go to pirtek-just a small backstreet hydraulic shop will do-much lower $$$$). Also, it would be a good idea to fit an oil cooler to the car as well. You'll get increased oil pressure in the motor and your oil will last a lot longer. a really cheap way of sorting that is with an oil bypass valve off the side of a toyota crown (they have oil coolers as standard) along with the cooling core. You'll be lucky to spend $10 at the wreckers.

Another way to do the oil cooler lines is with steel bundy tube or copper and use brass compression fittings. They take a little longer to make, however they are very tidy and dirt cheap-although you will need to mount the filter on the engine somewhere.

Cheers
Sean
