Default 14b Oil Feed Fitting

Can someone please tell me the correct oil feed fitting for a 14b turbo? I currenlty have the 7/16IF to AN-4 and that is too small.

Or Stan at Fast-turbo.com he just made a oil feed line for my 12a but the center sections are the same on both the 12a and 14b.

I got an extra fitting if you are interested. It's a -4 to 7/16 (npt?). Not sure exactly but i know it screws into a 14b.

That sounds like the same fitting I have. The 7/16 is too small, the fitting goes halfway into the hole before the threads catch.

The fitting should be correct cuz I got it from Stealthmode. I don't think yours worked cuz it's a 7/16 IF.

It was a pain in the *** for me to find a fitting (this was before stealth was selling a kit that would fit the 14b).
If I remember right it uses a 12x1.25 banjo, but you dont have to use a banjo. Find a hose shop close to you that sells Earls or aeroquip and try some different 12 fittings.

That is exactly what I did yesterday, went to a shop that sells earls fittings. Sure enough they had one. I ended up just leaving the turbo with them, they are going to retap the threads and install a new fitting. I should be getting my turbo back today! THen I'll be boosting again!
