So I made probably the dumbest mistake I’ve ever made today on my dsm...
I accidentally cut off my siphon hard line instead of the return line when attempting to upgrade to a -6an return.
Now I’m trying to decide the best course of action to fix the problem.
There aren’t any 90 bulkhead double barb end fittings that I can find so I’m wondering if I should just add another -6an bulkhead for the actual return.
The oem hardline for the siphon is 6.5mm and the -6an bulkheads is 6mm so I’m wondering if that will be big enough for the siphon hose.
I’m probably going to be running e85 in the future and worried about attempting to use brass fittings to make something else work.
Do you guys have any suggestions or should I just try and find another pump housing?
