Default ** What Dash Sizing Are The AC lines? **

I needed to put some orange fire sleeves on my AC lines that are right in front of my turbo manifold. I didn't know what size they are. I know one is bigger than the other though.

Also, how many feet of fire sleeve would i need to cover it from the ac compressor to the top of the hose.

Thanks in Advance!



Its the two hoses coming from the compressor.

the smaller of the 2 lines is probably 5/8" so that would be a -10an.

Theres about 4 different sizes there. Just use this chart
http://www.anplumbing.com/thread.html
Sizes of the AC lines range from 1/2" to 1" OD

*Edit: Just to clarify- AN fittings will not thread onto AC fittings, in case anyone is thinking about trying that.

Those are big like 1" and 3/4" OD.
so -16 and -12, maybe get a -10 just in case.

I'll get a -12 so that instead its a little bigger instead of it being too small.

Thanks!
