Default NPT fitting for Aeromotive FPR w/ 1/4" nipple
Anyone here know where I could find a replacement NPT vacuum fitting for an Aeromotive regulator. It would be nice to have the nipple be 1/4" so I can run a 1/4" vacuum line from the regulator strait to the back of my FAST 102. I hate using the shitty plastic vacuum adaptors. Thanks guys

Is it a hose barb? If so, in the brass fitting section at the hardware store.

Nominal OD for 1/6" NPT is 0.313", 1/8" NPT is .405", 1/4" is .540".

It is 1/16 NPT. That is the problem. Maybe I will just drill and tap 1/8" npt down the road.

I didn't even know there was 1/16" NPT before I looked up those figures.

Hahaha no your not. Thanks for trying. I thought it was crazy that I couldn't find the fitting I was looking for but it looks like it isn't out there.
