Default is there a difference between ls/vtec oil lines that are out there on the market

i am gonna build a b20vtec soon, buying part by part, i see all these oil lines going from $75.shipped up to $150. is there any thing i need to know about them, or any difference between them, if all the ls/vtec owners can post what they have and what kind works well for this setup.

I did it the way that these guys did it except I put in a distribution block in the middle of the line for after market oil pressure senders. I would just put it together yourself its not hard and its cheaper.

I got a good deal on the Tech43 Oil line kit So i just bought that and im using it with the golden eagle adaptor. I didnt like the idea of Teeing off my block.

i just went to the local hose and fitting store and got everyhting for about 25 bones, and it seems to work perfectly fine.
the fittings that you need
-1/8 to 4an
-3/8 to 4an
- 1/8 plug
- 2ft steel braided hose with 4an fittings on both sides
there are other ways to do it this is just the way i did it

I don't tee off the block I run it to a distribution block which has all of the sensors on it. I teed off the block once and the fitting broke inside the block since then I've always gone straight out to a block remotely located works well I've done four with no problems.

You don't need that much flow so use a -4.
