Copper, I just ordered a copper oil pressure line kit. I think it's 1/8".

Looks good, I have a two dash on a 49 and want to do the same. It has been mentioned that it is a good idea to put a loop in the oil line to absorb vibration and limit fatigue in a fixed line. Never installed one or had an oil line break, just passing the idea along to you...

Mine came that way to me. And it looks like it was done a long time ago. I got it from my uncle. And he got it from my grandfather. So I don't know who or when it was done but I agree with y'all 100% .

Might be room for a water temperature gauge in there if you relocated the lights and run / kill switch to say a more convenient spot up by the throttle and hydraulic levers on the steering tower!

So question is there a place on the cub to mount a water temp gauge? With my issues it would come in handy. I do like that mod will probably do that on my Cub when I restore it.
