That's a great point Sarge. I don't know if these would work on a DOHC or not. The oil lines on the SOHC are pretty low pressure. One side just drains back to the oil pan. If you have the cap off of the oil tank while it's running and Rev the motor you can see the oil swirl around, but its not jetting out of the lines. I don't know what the actual pressure is on that line, but is not the same high pressure that goes through the engine.

I plan to look up the specs on these this evening to see what pressures they will hold.
