Remote Water Pump Adapters

I purchased remote water pump adapters with -12 O-ring boss (ORB) ports, but the AN fittings projected well into the supercharger belt. I had a ORB to AN adapter to mount a 90-degree AN fitting and stacking the two took a lot space. A tight-radius fitting might have provided enough clearance, but it would add a lot of restriction. After a little research, I found the perfect fitting; ORB-to-AN, low-profile, swivel, swept radius 90-degree. That said, the new fittings still didn’t fit so I milled 1/4” off of the back of the adapters.

Machined adapters and clamshell fittings installed. The top is the outlet and the bottom is the inlet. This allows air bubbles to flow upwards and out.
