Here is the fitting I had custom made so we can drop the 044 in our fuel tanks. The fitting is 12mm x 1.5 to 5/16th. It has a machined lip on the end for a better grab on the hose.

I'm currently running it in my GN and it's the easiest way to get the 044 in our tanks.

Stainless Fitting = $37 shipped
Aluminum Fitting = Not sure, will look into pricing if enough want it.

I need around 10 orders to get the program up and running again for the pricing above as my one off was a hook up at $50.

FWIW, if you're running E85 you need the stainless fitting. I have a thread about what E85 does to aluminum fittings. :frown:

Hey guys, a couple more and I'll place the order and get a hold of you guys for a Paypal payment. I don't want any $$ until I place the order so it might be a week more.

I might Ebay it to pick up more orders to get this rolling faster too.
 
Ok looks like we have 5 guys so I'm going to contact the CNC shop Friday and have him crank out a batch of 10 in SS for us.

He thought it would take a week to two weeks tops so I'll keep you all in the loop and when they're just about done and I have to pay him, I'll have you guys hit me up with a paypal to

gnvyus1@hotmail.com

If you want to prepay that's cool, but not necessary yet.
 
Just to fill you guys in, we're looking at next week, I guess he's behind.

I'll post back in here when I have them ready to ship out so you can be on the lookout.

Thanks

Mike
 
Wanted to update everyone, the CNC shop is doing the fittings as a side job and it's been pushed to Friday now. I can only be so pushy since I didn't pay for a setup fee or tech fee on getting the program all dialed up and in the machines.

I'll keep you all informed
 
I got a call late Friday from the shop, all 10 are done and ready for pickup on Monday.

I'll be shipping out all 5 that were prepaid Monday via USPS Priority.

For those interested, I'll have 5 more available and Monday when I repost that I shipped them out you new guys can Paypal me. I'll ship those out Tuesday for you new guys.
 
I picked up 10 Stainless Fittings today and shipped out my orders.

I have 5 available for anyone interested. I'll be doing one on Ebay to get the word out but I'll make sure to keep the GN members high on the list.

For those that are curious, the fitting is now 8mm OD (a hair wider than 5/16th) and the tubing is a hair taller than 5/8th with a bigger flare at the top.
This way if you use a 3/8th hose you have no worries of it not fitting snug with the connector.
