Thermostatic adapter question

roy'sz · 08-29-2011, 02:17 AM

Just got the nissan motorsports kit installed a couple of weeks ago. Lookin to get the thermostatic adapter and was wondering what the threads were internally on both of the adapters if anybody knew? Nissans kit has a An-10 hose and most of the others are An-8. Any feedback would be awesome on this.

Believe the mocal is a 1/2" but it is a BSP not NPT so you need their special adapter.

Yeah im trying to figure out how this speed shop is goin to do it here in cali. I looked on their website and all they have is an-8 fittings and my kit is a an-10

If you don't have the fittings with it you should do some online searching and order the parts before hand because the shop by me had no idea what type of fitting a bsp was.

yeah the last thing i want is them to convert it from an10 to an8. Less flow is not my idea of a fix, not to mention spending 400 bucks on hoses, mocal thermostat adapter and labor!!! The only place I have heard is summit. plus my apointment is on friday. he said its 200 bucks about for the adapter and install, hopefully he has done a few of these or has the parts and is not advertising?
