Hi gents
Can I ask when fitting venhill oil line Banjos (self assembly lines) onto the rocker feed inlet ports, is there suffient clearance (between head and fitting nut) to use straight connectors or do you need angled ones???

Thank you
 
The Venhill kit includes 20 degree banjos and they fit well with plenty of clearance, and quite a lot of flexibility in actual final location. I usually fiddle with the final set on mine each time I install the motor, to make sure the stainless braid is not rubbing on anything, as it tends to cut like a saw.

I see no reason to try anything else!

Straight should fit.

Angled should also just fit when turned inwards.

I suggest you avoid using angled fittings turned outwards as a braided stainless line will almost certainly rub against the underside of the fuel tank. Keep the crossover section of braided line as short as possible for the same reason.

Is anyone making this without the stacked single banjos?

Aternatively you could drill through the end of the inlet spindles and allow oil to reach all 4 rockers from just a single banjo on one side.

I think Venhill offer a choice of finishes on the outer sleeve ( certainly for brake lines anyway).
