And the fitting I'll need is 3/4 pipe thread to 1/4? Hardin said it uses 3/8" hose.

It actually might be 3/8 hose. I don't remember for sure.

Thanks Griff, I think that's right. From what I've been told thus far by my crew chief, I'm going to need 3/8 hose, and a 3/4 NPT to 3/8 hose barb.

Doing a quick internet search, I'm getting the distinct feeling this is another one of those "bend over, we gonna make you squeal like a pig" type of fittings.

Summit doesn't have it, Jegs doesn't have it, but I'm betting I can get one shipped Monday for $40 each from a marine supplier.


WWEEEEEE!!!! WEEEE!!!! WEEEE!!!!!

Just drill and tap the existing plug for a 1/4" MPT X 3/8 barb, should still be able to re-install using the hex from the small fitting if the manifold threads are clean.
