1G FP Green install issue. Water line?

[TJCTalon]

Nope different size and thread. I heard that from a few local DSM guys also. My fp green is ball bearing though and I'd like to keep it happy as long as possible

Jeez they dont make it easy on you then do they.

Idk man. I would bolt down the water line tight, then pry it up just a tad. Have you talked to FP?

Yeah I did message Robert he said they've used stock lines multiple times with no issues. I opted for a barb fitting instead looks like it'll work just fine.

Isn't the top line supposed to be your oil feed, I have a 2g but just confirming? See attached a photo of mine with the rear housing off.

For those curious, this is another option

Steel braided Hose, -6 AN, for coolant or oil use, 18 inches long, straight/straight ends : atpturbo.com

The stock coolant line looked like it needed lots of tweaking. I hate AN lines/fittings, so after some research it appears that hose I posted will work with just a -6 to stock water pipe adapter.

This is the adapter needed

My line is in the mail so I can’t verify 100%, but research shows others using this coolant line setup with success
