that fitting is already designed with an o ring groove. you need a special o ring to seal it. the washers that I'm making will have the pocket to use this o ring on one side and a groove for an o ring on the other. i'll post a pic after lunch so everyone gets it.


I machine the groove so the o ring stays more on the face and doesn't get squished toward the center where it might get cut easier by the edge of the hole cut in the pan...at least that's what I was thinking the first time I did it and couldn't find the o-ringed washers locally the day I needed them...

The pickups have an o-ring recess in them. You put the fitting through the hole in the pan, you slip the o-ring over the fitting, you smear pipe sealant on the threads of the fitting, you screw the fitting into the pickup. No fancy washers and no leaks.

But if ya wanna waste time and money ...

I couldn't ever find those to fit the -12 fittings, they didn't go that big and I tried several suppliers. Well one said they made them but would have to buy a box of 100 and weren't going to do that unless I wanted to buy the box so I went with the seals that PittsburgeRacer is showing from DTI. (i'm trying to look up their contact or Website but not finding them)

Earl's doesn't carry -12 either, they stop at -8 or -10 but don't have for -12 or i would have went with the Stat-o-seals.

Check out my post asking about these earlier this year, if this link doesn't work, I bumped my old post so it would be on the front page.

It has the info for Doty for those seals.

Sorry Sammy I just came in from the shop. I'm not even sure he's still in business as the link no longer works. Maybe Jerry will make some up and make them more available.

sorry got busy at the shop. the prototypes are done but I didn't get a chance to take pics today. I'll have them posted in the am tomorrow and then will start taking orders for them. the first set I designed to be a -12 but -16 and -24 and -10 could be available if there is interest.

also if anyone is interested I made a weld in port for the -12 fitting since I have all the porting tools in the shop. the weld in bung is threaded and has the o ring groove already so you just screw in your fitting. these can be aluminum or steel. let me know your thoughts.

here are the washers, in the kit you'll get two sealing washers and 4 o rings. the -12 washers will be $15.00 for the pair.

we did our best to make the washers as small as possible and they use standard off the shelf o rings.

There you go. They look very nice Jerry and at a reasonable cost. Don't forget I sent you a PM about your small block valve cover spacers.

its a little hard to see as the pic is a little blurry but on the side away from the fitting there is a groove for an oring. the o ring seals against the oil pan wall. on the fitting side of the washer there is a special port groove for use with the o ring on AN-12 style port fittings, which is what all the earls and aeroquip fittings are designed around.

these could even be used on both sides of the pan to seal a bulk head extra assurance. so you'd have fitting, washer, oil pan wall, washer and then lock nut. if its still unclear i'll post up a drawing later.
