Default BOV Fitting

I have a turbosmart bov and I'm missing the fitting pictured. Turbosmart told me it's a 3an male to 1/8th nipple. I can't find this anywhere locally (Miami) and they want approx $25 for one. I can't find an exact match on summit ebay etc either. Any ideas?

Nope. only from a turbosmart dealer, unless you can find one that has the same thread pitch and MacGuyver it from that point. Time to take it to a plumbing supply place and start finding out the correct measurements for fitment.

Perma-cool 15175: -3AN to 3/8" barb nipples $6.27 a nipple

You can step down to whatever line ID you're feeding it with.

EDIT: the interwebs have conflicting information on the thread pitch...it could be coarse or fine and it might be tapered. I would use it.

Just convert to AN flare with a hose end and call it a day.
