    Mike Phillips is doing this to our new motor this way. From the pictures I saw when the taped the holes in the timing cover they used braided hose with AN fitting to the rear of the intake......it looked like -10, maybe -12 hose. I don't know if the holes were 3/8 or 1/2 npt

    Yup done it a couple different ways.

    On this one, due to the supercharger creating some issues with the driver side, I wanted pushlock fittings.. this is done with-10 hose and the fittings are 3/8NPT to -10.

    I have done others that didn't have all the Supercharger stuff in the way, and simply used 3/8 NPT to 5/8 hose barbs and then you can get 5/8 heater hose lengths that are molded with a 90* turn, for the rear. Go to your local auto parts store and ask for them.. I Just ran the hoses and hose clamps on that one, use the cool new Gates power grip hose clamps..

    Thanks guys.Jim that's what I needed to see.eas kinda frowning on using braided line.thought it would run on the aluminum bad.like the push lock style.when I get close I think I'll figure it out.
