Looking for Detroit 6v71TA Turbo oil lines

[MrDough]

Hello everyone, this is my first post :grin: and I have a question.

I have a 1986 SeaRay 460 Express Cruiser with two Stewart & Stevenson Detroit 6v71TA twin turbo and I am looking for the turbo oil feed lines. The lines from the turbo on the right side of the port engine and the left side of the starboard engine are starting to get badly rusted and I would like to replace them but I have no idea where to get them. If anyone has an idea where to get it from please let me know and also if you need any other information or anything. Thanks

Don't know if this helps but if anyone needs it to identify the engine
Engine Serial #:6VA-134601 7062-3600

Join Boatdiesel.com; best $25 you'll spend if you own a diesel boat.
I'm sure someone there can help, if they're still available.

You could always have new ones made at any shop that does hydraulic lines, and it may even be cheaper...

Thanks, I'll take a take a look at both places.

Update: I just had my turbo lines made by a company called Colliflower and they did an excellent job. Total was $80 for two custom hi-temp hydraulic turbo oil lines. Took them only 15 minutes and they did it right on the spot. So if you live on the east coast, they're a good place to go to for hoses, fittings and hydraulic lines.

There ya go! And under $1 (boat dollar, that is).

I love the sound of those Detroits... there's a 42 Hatt down the canal, I never have to look out the window to know it's him...

Those 460's are great boats- if I had enough waterfront I was going to look for one instead of my 390...

How about some pictures?

I'll get some up once she's in the water :thumbsup:
