Default Coolant Line Confusion

Ok well this is my second topic of this kind. But I really dont know what to get. Looking to use all brass fittings. And 1/4 350psi hose, and 5/16 fuel line. Like one of the 14b setups on this site. I also have one of the TunerToys 3 way splitters I will be using. So if someone wants to tell me what fittings and barbs I need I'd really appreciate it. Because so far everytime I go to the parts store and start looking around at them I just go blank. Thanks.

I know they are metric. You probably can find that from www.amstreetrod.com

How come you don't use the ones I sent along? Can't you just clamp a rubber hose on it?

Yeah. Those are the coolant lines right? Mainly confused about all the oil fittings and such.

yeah I didn't have the oil lines.. you can get a flange from www.roadraceengineering.com for the oil drain.. You probably have to ask them about it. If you search honda-tech there was a thread about the oil line fittings for the dsm turbos. Gave you all the part numbers and everything. Its a 10mm banjo bolt I think.

I also prefer the 'bring it with you to the hardware store and try ---- out' method. Fast and easy. Brass fittings are cheap too.
