Default LS VTEC question

ok, so i ordered this ls/vtec kit. first off it doesnt have the right 3/8 npt -4an because it doesnt screw into the oil line. but here is my problem, its a -3an line, is that gonna be ok? or is that too thin? i think that it is made for turbo applications because the company that makes them is called "fastturbo". well, let me know if any of you guys are using a -3an. btw, im not even sure if its -3an, its just really thin, like as thick as a pencil or pen. any help is appreciated, thanks guys

it should be fine. I always run -4. But it's not like you need a steady large volume flow of oil up there. All you need a consistent pressure. I say if it doesn't work then go bigger. But I don't see why it wouldn't work. I had a friend with a little *** peanut wire gonig in there and his vtec worked no problem.
