I've posted on this before (6 months? A year?), but I have about 1/2 of a
setup like that. At the block I have the original Sunbeam(?) bits, transitioning
to some braided SS-over-Teflon lines, to a J.C. Junk adapter behind the
headlight.
I'm happy. Of course, after reading Phil's post, I'll check out the catalogues
looking for a Kevlar scattershield for my oil filter. :)
BTW, changing filters is super-easy w/this set-up.
