Feed & Drain Size, How To Measure?

AN is sized by the outer diameter of a metal tube. Theoretically a -8 is 1/2" and -10 is 5/8". With braided hose, its a little tougher. Best way is probably to measure the threads on the fitting. -8 is 3/4, -10 is 7/8"

Re: (Boilermaker1)
Ok so if I were to get the function 7 1/2" NPT drain flange i would need the earls 1/2npt ---> -8an fitting. What fitting will I need to feed my turbo oil? I have straights but they are restrictors that were used on my 35r, I've since switched to journal bearing.

Braided -10 has an INSIDE diameter of 5/8.

usually they are 1/8 npt...
Usually the bearing case (not always) is threaded for 1/8"NPT. Put a 1/8"NPT x -3AN and you should be good to go. There is no reason to run a -4 line and your drain sounds a little small... -10 or -12, or 1/2 is perfect. (-10 for the BB turbochargers)

they should have a diagram of AN sizes etc that you can hold up to gauge it.
