Does anyone use this?

I am looking for the heater hose fitting like shown except I want one that is 90 degrees instead of straight. Does anyone know where I can find a 90 degree fitting the will thread into this hole. I would like to find one that looks good too, (not brass)

Thanks.Name:  water fitting.jpg

Steve, dont want to high jack your post, but what booster are you using on your m/c? Looks smaller and tight to the firewall. I'm looking for an upgrade. Thanks Lou

You can get AN style elbows then adapt your hose. Here's an example.
Look on Summit too!

Here's a short 90 degree chrome fitting at Summit that I bought. Nice piece.

Re: Does anyone use this?

Thanks Lee and FirstOwner, just what I needed.

Jaros44sr, I am going to angle īt more towards the front so the hose wraps around the cover.

Geezer, thanks for the tip but I like the silver ones from Summit a little better.

Lou Boffa, I believe it is from MPbrakes.com. p/n = BM1755

I have one if you need it...push on barb for the heater hose and swivel fitting an -10 female, 90 degree, this fitting then screws into the adapter an-10 male to 1/2 or 3/4npt

Thanks for the offer Jaros44sr, but I am kinda digging those ones at Summit so I think I am going to go that route.

Youre welcome, but that style may not become tight at the angle you want. Thats why a swivel works better...good luck, hope it works out for you
