Thanks, i found what i need in the catalog, while searching the net for it, I found that "surplus center" (which I have order stuff form before for a good price) have them under hydrallics, and its reasonable priced

link for future refrence if anyone runs into the same problem I have with SAE O-ring/AN fittings

This is a better shot at locating the adapter / connectors than what I gave you before....

When you have a part number, a call your local Aeroquip hose dealer....that should do the trick.

Hit "catalog" under the "Product overview" heading and lool at the adapter fittings and connectors.

Yes the stuff I need is the straight thread port that needed the O ring. If i can find something that will adapts the flared side, thats ok too

Holun - Try this site, maybe you can find what you need at an industrial fitting supplier....

Take a look at the "low pressure" stuff.....

Is the item you are looking for an adapter to fit a female, straight thread, O-ring port? It may take some looking but just about every kind of junction can be made in the industrial world. I'll try to think of some other sources.....this is the first one I thought of. Most of the industrial flare fittings are 45° - not the 37° of the AN world - but there are many O-ring, pipe and tube fittings around too.

This is another source of just about everything you can imagine.................

Good luck!

the book name is "Turbochargers" published by HP books and author by Hugh Maclnnes

I got stuck on sourcing correct fittings for my fuel pressure regulator, why the @#%6 they have to use AN fittings? and not including good old barb fittings for the inlet and by pass, the out lets are NPT threads so I am ok there. I cant find any barb fittings that will replace the AN-8 fittings.



I dont want to use AN fittings.

I dont know about Holley, but Im running with TBI Megasquirt.

It has everything, what turboengine needs and it can handle the TBI-style injection.

12*12 maps for MAP or TPS based fuel and ignition.

MS is DIY fuel injection, so it needs lot of studying.



Hestek or Haltek is more expensive systems, but more easier.



...and if you want run mechanical injection, some turbofreaks recommends Bosch K-jetronic(or two fourbanger's K-jet for V8) It is quite easy to install and it works without electricity.



Edit:Ferrari F40-style combination of TPS, MAP, RPM is said to be best for turbos.

OK so far the only thing I have done is modifly my carter afb some to be boost ready by making solid floats and putting in a marine accelerator pump.

and still geathering parts, so far I have purchased 3 turbos, and have already received 2, one of them is a Mitsubish TE04, that thing is way too small for the 292. and the other one is a Garrett T25 with .80 a/r got another exact one coming if 1 t25 is not enugh.

I also have gotten a book on turbocharger and read up on some technical aspect that I didnt know about, and found out how to make vaccum advance work with boost.



also upgraded my wire feed welder to use shielding gas instead of fluxcore, and holy crap, what a big difference it made, I thought my welding skill was bad, turns out it was just my equipment, i'll never use flux core ever again.



and I got to thinking, may be I should use the Holley Projection TBI systems, but i have no idea how that thing work, does it work off of MAP with TPS , or MAF with TPS, or TPS only? how well do they perform under force induction application?



if anyone have experience with these or know where to find info on them with Force induction, please let me know.



also I am wondering if theres a ford TBI type Fuel injection system that have a standalone computer that came from the factory? sort of like the Duraspark conversion, except this is for electronic throttle body fuel injection.

I heard that Malpassi's pressure is not stable.

3 bar might be 4 or 2.5 in next month.



...rumours from injection forums.

Check out the google with "Malpassi fuel regulators" as a keyword. Cheap and usable. I have one for twin carbs.
