home depot ain't gonna have it. esspecially not in brass fittings and what not. Go to a real hardware store and fine the size... then get it from McMasterCarr

well, i just wanted to take it there to find out what the threading was.

Steve at Stealthmode sent me what looks like an M8x1.5, but the threading is off and the diameter is too small. he's going to send me the right one, just have to find out what it is.

that's why im guessing an M10x1.25, but am not 100% positive.

are you sure your not trying to put the oil line in the water coolant passage :P

no, its common knowledge that stealthmode fittings don't fit perfectly.

this being that they are standard, and you will probably never find the correct fitting.

just use the stock banjo bolt fitting (built in restrictor) and weld the stealthmode fitting to the end of it.

it may be the same problem i ran into when trying to find the fitting for a nissan t3

What I sent is a M10x1.50. I can get pretty much any size in metric, but nobody can tell me for sure what exact size it is.

jesus christ. even if you're putting a standard size fitting into a metric hole use a little silicone and it won't ever leak

mine dont :)

My dad knows the correct size for them. We have a few of them laying around the house. We got them from our local shop. They are actually the same thread as the fuel filter, you could put a gauge on the top kinda thing. I will get some pics I guess and the size.
