Looks awesome. How's the thermostat housing clearance though? I'm on my phone, but it looks pretty tight.

With all that good looking aluminum, the only thing I would change, is to put in some accufab, or vanjen or ect... clamps vs the silicone boots.

What size TB?

dvst8r · « **Reply #38 on:** April 16, 2012, 10:11:34 AM »

3/8's O-ring would be my guess.

That's what I figured but everything that I've seen that took a straight cut o-ring fitting, had a little race on the port to accept the o-ring. This doesn't.

Use -6 AN o-rings! The o-ring is put on the thread-less area at the base of the threads, and seal on the outter chamfer on the female fitting.

Either get a "straight-cut" fitting that only uses an o-ring, or cut off the flare end on the AN fitting. If it screws in w/o bottoming out, you can just pop on an o-ring.

Maybe npt?

3/8 oring would be a -906 I believe.
if a -6 AN is the same 9/16-18 thread an SAE -6 is.

Sounds like BSPP, which is the rest of the worlds version of npt, sort of.
