Hello all,

looking for a machine shop or person that could mill me a fitting with specs along the lines of the following. -3an male flaired end to a male 7/16 x 24 inch thread. It needs to have a 1/16 inch hole thro the middle or at least on the 7/16 inch half of the fitting.

This is bassically a custom made orifice flow restrictor. I can’t seem to find the female to male ones in 7/16 inch size. Everyone has the standard 1/8 inch NPT and I don’t want to get another fitting that adapts it to 7/16 inch cause then we have made a wonderful ventury.

The purpose of this is an oil restrictor for oil inlet to turbo,

Any suggestions welcome as i need this by the weekend :x

Thanks,  
Andrew.

for anyone that ever needs a restrictor for their GT25/30 series turbo or any other BB turbo made by Garrett (they require 7/16 inch inverted flaired fittings).

1. [www.splparts.com](http://www.splparts.com) carries one that accepts -4an feed line. It is a banjo style fitting. 25US

2. www.jgycustoms carries -4an line with the fitting in regular threaded style for 69US

Enjoy,

Andrew.
