Talking Here !!!

Bob:

The other side will be a male 1/16" NPT (1/16" NPT male X 1/8" NPT female straight adapter). The part number for the fitting from NOS (not a 90 degree tough!!!) is 16785NOS...

Doing the FP gauge he !!!

That fitting does not make sense to me?????

I would think i need a fitting with two female ports (1/8 npt for the sender 1/16 npt for the rail) am i just stupid???

Geez i thought the cobra was expensive, i have spent 3k on this thing since i bought it on 10/2

If you have instant messenger im me "vobra46"

Bob

Mark - no nitrous for me yet

I am leaving the motor and drivetrain stock for a while

Talking Bob!!!

I don't have IM (that's AOL right?) but trust me buddy, if you want the adapter for the fuel rail for either a fuel pressure gauge sender or Fuel Pressure Switch, then the one above is the one... I know it sounds funky, but that is the one...

Wink You got it buddy ...

I still need to get CJ to tune my car early next year. We have the hardware in the car to make this car put something in the neighborhood of 600 RWHP on 13-14 psi of boost. Now I just have to pray to the tranny and rear end gods to make the driveline last for at least a little time untill I recover from the Cobra bills... This Lightning truck is sooo much fun though !!!

I'm I still invited to come over when it comes tune time at CJ's?

Wink Hey there !!!

I hope you didn't get a sex change or something freaky like that... j/k I bet you I would recognize you no matter what, I am bad with names but I don't forget faces very often... Thanks for the invite, I may take you up on it !!!

How does your sound system sound? I really want to improve the tunes in my truck and I want some ideas. What components did you ended up going with?

The NOS fitting #17685 is what you need and you can find the 1/8 male the 1/8 female 90 degree in Aeroquip.

Cool outrageous01

That P/N number from NOS does not exhist. The correct part number is NOS-16785 (~$6.95 from Summit Racing), and you're correct about the 90 degree fitting which can be purchased from Aeroquip. Just a little correction to avoid a little confusion...
