So I have seen several posts on here and other forums/FB with people having issues with the coolant hardlines mating up to the FP green. I am also in this pickle and decided to post my solution.

I found a 14mm to 6an banjo fitting with a 45 degree bend to clear the block off on the green. And for the hard pipe connection an M16X1.5 TO 6AN adapter fitting. Both of these items can be found on eBay/amazon easily for around $10 a piece. You'll need to use appropriate fittings and line to finish out the hose. A lot of the replies I've seen on other posts suggest to block off the coolant jackets or state "I've never had a problem with it fitting." Hopefully this helps someone out in the future.

Good find.


Request/suggestion in one: Take some better pictures of your personal setup and where to find the fittings, and make a short how-to and post it in the how-to section. This is good info, especially for someone like me who has an FP Green with no coolant lines currently running to it.
 
That's a solid idea, ill do just that when I get the line together and mounted up.
