Rusty, I have eliminated all my banjo fittings. You can get the adapters from Summit Racing.

Hi Buly,

Getting a metric to AN adapter is relatively easy, but it won't fit.  The engine mount portion of the CCI mount plate gets in the way of the oil return fitting, so you can only use something very low profile, like a banjo fitting.   Another thought would be to build the oil return into the oil filter adapter block, like I believe is done on the FD.  My current fitting has surprised me by not leaking, but I don't want to push my luck.  

Cheers,
Rusty
  

 

If you want a banjo fitting, I have saved couple. I plumbed my return oil into the oil filter adapter.
