I bought a Venom intake manifold, and I'm having a hell of time finding the right fitting on the side where the u-shapped coolant line attaches on the thermostat housing and to the intake manifold. I know it's 3/8, but the coolant house is 5/8 inside diameter and as far as I know a 3/8 to 5/8 straight doesn't exist.

Hope that makes sense, help!

 

on my jg manifold. i got a small fitting from pepboys, and used a small worm clamp on it. not a barb style fitting. its a chrome colored fitting and only has 1 barb all the way on the end of the fitting.

hmmm... I have 3/8 to 1/2 straight that just has the lip on it. I just don't want it to leak.

Sounds like you didn't have a problem with yours leaking.

 

I called Venom and they told me it's a race only application so I will have to modify it to make it work. He made a point to say that anything I do to the manifold is on me and then asked me for my name again!

I thought that was a bit funny.

Thanks

 

hmm...i have the IM...ill take a look tomorrow and let you know which fitting i used...

this is b series, right?
