I plan to redo all my coolant lines for my TVS1900 In -12 nylon braided AN lines and fittings just to clean stuff up. One thing I cannot seem to find is a different port for the back of the Maggie. I know I could buy weld on fittings but I'd much rather unbolt this port and bolt on an AN port.

Anyone already have a solution to this problem?

Not that I ever found. I looked years ago.

Well that's lame. I really hate hose clamps

me too! When I pulled those hoses off I found it the easiest to just remove the bolt and the whole cooler block as one with the lines attached.

That is a good idea. Honestly when I first slapped everything together I didn't even realize it was a one bolt removal.

I'd be happy to weld some bungs on that for you, let me know if you'd like to do that 🤘🏻

Otiker clamps work fine as well on the nipples they have existing.

I bought all braided nylon -12 hose and that stuff frays so bad when cut. I would be eternally mad at myself for using hose clamps and making it worse. Arthur has graciously offered to weld some bungs on for a good price so this piece will be in the way to his house soon.

Nice. So if you look at the intercooler core after you remove the coolant manifold you will see how restrictive the ports are. Kind of a joke. I opened mine up and got a lot more flow.

How did you port them? Just Dremel and rotary file bits? I've never ported anything before but I plan to port match my header flange a little better and I have plenty of rotary files.
