Hi All - I've been looking into different solutions for merging the two coolant outputs on the 6-cylinder suby motors into a single tube. I finally found something that should work pretty well with these guys Jags That Run. The idea is to use a "T" to merge the two 1-1/8" outlets into a single 1-1/4" hose. The fitting would also be tapped for a 1/4" nipple which would be used as a steam line and routed back to a surge/expansion tank. The following pictures show a rough diagram of my expected set-up and then some examples of their "T" fittings. (Note that I didn't bother including any of the return lines in the diagram)
I'm posting this to see if anyone else would be interested in this fitting since right now it's a one-off production. If I just purchase the one it will be ~$80. However; if I can get 10 or more orders the price will come down to about $30/each! So...any interests? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/www.jagsthatrun.com-3684-1414093000.1.jpg) |
