Im converting my 6 to EFI and going AN plumbing everywhere. After lots of searching, there are no M18x1 to AN6 (or AN8) adapters I can find anywhere. Even found an old post on the club board w/ someone looking for the same thing.
So, has anyone found anything more recently before I just turn my own out of aluminum? If I make my own, is there any interest in cranking out a few extra sets?  |

CB couldn't tell me the fitting size and I can't find anything on the web about a vw bug tank size, so I just ordered a pair. Should know by next week...

Just call their support line and the people are quick to find what you need, if they have the product. Need help finding a product? E-mail or call (630) 600-3600. |

The last good alternative is to call Rich at HPH. He probably has what you want. If Rich isn't there Larry is an expert. I've never not had success with both of these guys. |

No (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) They came bubble packed, thread side down, so they would have had to have cut one off the card to measure. Anyway, the good news is.... They're M18x1.0 ! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) I need to take them home and make sure the internal o-ring lines up but its looking very good. I plan on sending them an email so they can (hopefully) update their website w/ the info. |
