AN fittings!!

[Alex7747]

Hey everyone, so me my father has had a business making AN fittings and fasteners for a while (25+ years experience) and I'm doing some research on the most popular sizes used in everyones engines, and fastener needed. These are of superb quality! He can make just about any size AN fittings, and has been for a while. Im just trying to help my dad move his company in the next level of business.
He's been making the parts in bulks of up to 30k at a time in single orders for very cheap. And i thought hey! why don't we just sell them ourselves and cut out the middle man! And now we are looking to cut out the middle man . If you are helpful we may even do some free trials.

If you can give me a list of the most popular AN fittings used in DSM engine bays, or any other platform. We can hook you up with some FREE samples!!!

My Dad's business has been making these parts for a very long time. He can even make restricters for those turbos that you may need to keep the oil pressure down on. If anyone can help us out with the thread size and pitch for some popular turbos (holset, garrett, Mitsubishi, PTE, ect). Ill try and post some examples of the parts my dad makes tomorrow.

Hopefully if this catches on, we can make the fitting for you guys for much cheaper then some people are offering them online.

Thanks everyone at DSMtuners.

Edit: by thread size on the turbos, i meant the cartridge oil feed and drain sizes. thanks again

Telfon tape is the wrong thread sealant for this application.

You should use gas/oil compatible tape, should be yellow in color, or an aerobic sealant, this is what I use. Used it on my entire auto trans cooler system on my jeep, no leaks.

goodluck

This ^.

I always use that sealer, and stay away from tape on anything but drain fittings (and even then, only if I'm out of sealer or it's a wet fitting).

-4,-6,-8,-10 are the most popular that i know of for dsms

Look into 1/8 bspt male to 1/8npt female (or to -4 an female). Not too many ppl make these, and the autometer one is not tapered....

And just to regurgitate:
-10, and -12 for catch cans
-6 for fuel lines

Maybe work on some low profile valve cover fittings/adapters/bungs

Depends what your goal is, some -6AN hose have a smaller ID than stock hard fuel lines.

Not sure I like the direction of this thread. If one of the other Mods disagrees, you can re-open it....but even Freelancers aren't allowed to place "feeler" threads; this is only reserved for Supporting Vendors. The fact that this had somehow slipped through the cracks for a year surprises me a bit, actually.
