GaleForce's build

I dropped the harness bar, and a couple other parts, off at the paint shop today.

Also received a package from Summit Racing today. -an fittings and hose.

Did Sasha give you the AN fitting you needed for the GReddy adapter? One of the ones he replaced is leaking and I need to replace it.

No, I ordered them from Summit.

I'd be interest to see if you have to use a washer to make up any gap. There is one on what Sasha sent me. I'll likely order the same parts if I can't fix the leak on my own.

I'll try threading a fitting on later and let you know.

There is a very tiny gap, the fitting doesn't fully seat against the housing. I am going to try reusing the rubber o-ring off the gold fittings.

Double check the side port. The one next to the 1/8th NPT port. I'm pretty sure that's where my leak was. It tight but not tight enough from the factory. Put 19mm on it and snugnit down real good. If you mount it in a similar location as I did you can check and tighten it from the top without pull the undershroud or getting under the car. I had to buy a stub 19mm to get on it though. I'll be making it part of my weekend maintenance.

What did you use on the oil filter nut? Thread sealant?

Which nut are you talking about? The on the oil filter itself threads onto?

Yes.

BTW, all the fitting on my Greddy piece are only finger tight.
