Are you relocating the oil pressure sensor? I can check on what length when I get home this afternoon - if someone hasn't chimed in already.

It depends on exactly where you place it. I used a piece of 3 foot 1/4 inch OD copper and trimmed off the excess as I shaped the bends to get it where I wanted it. I probably used just a little over 2 feet but not much over.

15in -3 line is what I used. Depends on where you want to mount it, though.
