anybody know the size and pitch of the inlet/outlet on the Paxton Fuel pressure regulators??? Its not 3/4 pipe, and I, along with the local Napa have no idea...
thanx in advance

 

Should be either -6AN or -10AN

 

it depends on the model, I have the paxton signature series...
it's -10AN and -6AN return. but you need a Bosch O-ring adapter or you can use the regular AN adapter but make sure you put a rubber o-rings on them

I'll get you the thread size and pitch of the bosch o-ring when I get home....that's prolly the only thing I don't memorize lol

This is the model: It just says Paxton on the blue part...

This is one inletthe big hole)

This is the otherthe big hole also)

And below, is the hole on the bottom...there is no hole beyond the threads...Im assuming it just has to be drilled to let fuel in or out...
One more thing, how can you tell which one is inlet/outlet?
On the 10-an, since Im running 8-an feed lines, would I just get a 10-an to 8-an reducer, and then screw that into the regulator itself(with whatever oring kit you were talking about)???

Looks like you have the -10 inlets. Both of the large openings are inlets and the bottom port is the return. If you have -8 lines coming off your fuel rail, then you'll need a -8 to -10 reducer and a -10 plug on the other inlet. Make sure you use orings on each end. You don't need to drill any kind of hole for the return port. Also if you're using AN adapters, you'll need to cut off the ends where it tapers down to a cone.

 

yea thats either -6AN or -10AN... not standard or metric.. stands for Army/Navy.

 

ohhhh I didnt think it was an AN fitting because of the cone....thank you
And, I think on the bottom hole, I just discovered that there actually IS a hole for fuel to exit...you da man! Now I need to come up with $270 to pay for all of my fittings
