    Quick fittings questions for turbo coolant Lines

    need a few fittings for my SS turbo lines and I just want to make sure I get the right ones. Can someone please verify the fitting sizes I have highlighted in red?

    Coolant feed to turbo from block



    AN -6 to NPT 1/4


    Coolant outlet line from turbo



    AN -8 to NPT 3/8


    Do I have that right or do I need to bump up an eighth on both? Measuring is landing both in between two sizes.


    Thanks for the help guys.

    Dang it, it took out the first reply I typed. I use -6 too and from the turbo. You'll need to remove those flare fittings though. It's 1/4NPT at the block and 3/8ths at the turbo.

    I use a 1/4NPT to 6AN 45* fitting at the block and it works well.

    Here are the answers which you seek.

    Is it 3/8 on the intake and exit side? I didn't realize people were removing the brass fittings on the center cartridge, That makes a lot more sense.

    thanks!

    Yes, it's 3/8ths on both sides. You'll have to remove that brass fitting on the block too. That's flare, but the block itself is 1/4NPT.

    Here's a pic of how I go into the head these days.
