It seems Bonaparts no longer trade?
Has anybody a solution for flexible pipes for the cylinder head feeds?
Cheers
Peter

Peter,
I bought the flexible oil pipes for my Pembleton from Der Franzose.
They still supply to the UK post Brexit, but with a £15 delivery charge.

Hi Peter
I still have some of the sets of longer threaded banjo bolts ,M7 fine (good old Citroen size )which should be used for flexible oil feed pipes,gives you more thread in the head as the standard banjo bolts are a bit short when used with aftermarket fittings .
you would have to get some flexible Replacement pipe ,from memory the fittings you need are Goodridge fittings ,a good hydraulic pipe supplier should be able to make some up to order.
If you want a set message me
Keep on revving

Re: Cylinder oil feed pipes
In addition to any stock Steve P has remaining, Graham at LomaxCars also has a few sets included amongst the stock from handover.
Graham also has the detail of hose lengths required.
Important note is to understand that the use of the "special" banjo bolts Steve P refers is essential as they were designed specifically to prevent over oiling of the rockers which can be a source of low tickover oil pressure and rocker cover leaks.
