Is there a standard AN fitting adapter that'll screw into the fill and drain openings of the transmission??
What are people using?? |

as AN fittings are ALWAYS English parallel threads and the standard fill and drain plugs are metric tapered pipe plugs, Question #1 would be a "no."
several people have reported drilling through the fill and drain plugs and welding/brazing/JB-gluing some kind of fitting. i'd recommend using the 19mm ATF 911/914.6 plugs for this, rather than the 17mm Inhex (Allen) plugs that are standard in the 914.4 the fill plug is 999.064.019.02 and the drain plug (with magnet) is 999.064.020.02. |

I made my suction fitting by drilling and pipe taping a regular drain plug and using the pipe to AN adapter. After I tightened the adapter I used some JB Weld just to make sure it held. So far in 4 races it has worked well. For the return we also used pipe to AN adapters.
