The copper tube with compression fittings is not the best of choices here.
Thermal expansion will soon cause the fittings to leak and you will only be
able to tighten them so much. I use steel brake tubing and the double flares
as used as used as American cars has been a proven method for me.

Had a go at making my version of a relocation "manifold" for low/high and
gauge oil pressure senders (for WB). An evening of mucking around got me
almost there.
