302/351W Htr hose nipple from intake...not a 5.0 hard line setup but I'm looking for

[nvrstuk]

a single piece stock style fitting that screws into the intake and has a 90deg 5/8" htr hose fitting on it. These were steel and of course all the old used ones are rusty and t h i n.

Going for a clean look. Don't want a bushing, then a ugly brass 90, then a 5/8" nipple...

Can't find one anywhere.

TIA

LOL....yeah, like THAT!! : )

I've been scrounging around trying to find something that is clean looking w/o 2 or more connecting pieces... been thru 4 catalogs at 2 different parts stores and on-line looking...

Guess I'll call 'em tomorrow!

thanks

Got mine at Oreilly's

http://www.oreillyauto.com/site/c/detail/MRY0/84775/N0886.oap?pt=N0886&ppt=C0108

They had several different sizes.

Thanks. I'll call my local Oreilly's and see if they can order this...Sure couldn't find it in any of their catalogs... and $16.49 for shipping a 4oz part seems a bit steep...

Definitely.
If for some reason you still can't find it locally, I'd have someone ship it via USPS. We do that all the time for stuff like that (http://www.wildhorses4x4.com/category/Early_bronco_hoses) and even Priority Mail would probably cost somewhere near $7 bucks or so.
Regular snail mail might be less than 3 bucks.

After looking at TOMS/WILDHORSES vs the one from O'REILLYS is the longer neck better? Hence the higher price point. I guess the longer neck would allow better pick up if fluid was low.

Here is one for $20.90 shipped:http://www.ebay.com/itm/Water-Inlet...ash=item5b06356a0b:g:G9wAAOSws65TofXq&vxp=mtr

I can imagine all sorts of functional reasons for the siphon tube thingy extending deeper into the manifold, but I have zero information on what it's intentions are, and why Ford used them.
But the extended type is definitely what Ford installed brand new on our rigs. And presumably millions of other cars and trucks, though I can't verify that either.

I'm guessing one that does not have the extension tube would still perform passably well. Just not sure what differences in that performance would be.

I ordered the one from ORiellys above...you can't get the spec's off the website to determine the exact size... so if you need a 3/8"NPT x 5/8" htr hose fitting order that one. If you need a 1/2"NPT x 5/8" htr hose have the parts guy scroll to the next part number on his computer and that's the one. Even the parts guy said you can't get the dimensions off their site... I should have it by Tuesday...thanks

Paul Isn't that an exit / return hose. Not a pickup hose. So siphon would not matter? Just wondering
