i was wondering what people use for the fitting that runs from the intake to the water pump on new intakes. I bopught an air gap intake and can't find a fitting any where local. its the 3/4 thread and 1" hose fitting. i found one on summit made by mopar for $30 but that seems a little high to me. an suggestions? Thanks

In a pinch, I cut a small chunk of 3/4" water pipe down and cranked it into manifold with channelocks, which left some rough marks that the hose could hold onto once clamped. 3 years, still good not leaking.

I couldn't find a new one either. I destroyed my old one trying to get it out so I used a 3/4 water pipe coupler and cut the threads off the other end. I roughed up the surface with some sand paper and it's been fine 6 years so far.

yeah i saw those but the thing is i've been ordering stuff from them and summit on a regular basis because i seem to always forget one thing after each time i order so I think that maybe if i stop ordering i'll stop forgetting things.
