Hi, fellow rotary enthusiasts....I already made a stainless steel return
line from the Ross PSRU.  I was thinking of tapping into the new 90 degree
oil filter adapter that we are producing for the oil supply line, as it will
be require a shorter hose.

Great idea Paul.

  I seem to recall reading somewhere that some company selling a rotary
engine installed a .040 restrictor in the oil supply line to the PSRU.  It
might have been for a marine aplication?   My question is:  should/would it
be advantageous to install a restrictor, or do most of you just use a -6
line?  Thanks for all suggestions. Paul Conner

The .040 is right. The dash six will be about .36 ID. If you have a Ross that
is too big. Too much oil. Too much drop in engine oil pressure.

Tracy on the other hand uses the engine oil pressure in his plain bearing
PSRU so go with what he recommends.
