LSA Engine PS pump fitting question.
 

Anybody got any ideas what can replace the factory fitting? Something o-ring with -AN threads maybe? Really don't want to buy a 50 dollar hose just to cut the end off. 2011 CTS-V engine.....


T,

Earl's make an o-ring to AN 6 fitting. Find out the size, I think they are either 18 or 16mm...I may have both in my tool box and be happy to send it to you.

Andrew

fragola makes them also and i am one of the countrys top dealers for them,get me the size you need and ill be happy to help ya out

Turn One used to have one. They are quite helpful when you give them a call. If you are using a rack the pressure of the CTS-V pump may be too high. They can help you there too.

Thanks guys appears the following numbers will work...

Russell 648060
Aeroquip FCM 2608
Earl's 919955

It is a 16MM to 1.5 o-ring to -6AN

T,

The problem I ran into with the fittings listed is the AN hose end hit the PS pulley.

I went with the Turn One Extended O-Ring fitting.

Let me see if I have one of those. I had no issues with clearance, but that was with C5 accessories.

Tom,

I have the earl's fitting. If it will work for you, shoot me a PM with your address and it'll be on the way.

Andrew

Thanks Andrew. Let me get it the shop tonight and take out the fitting that's there and verify I'm on the right track. I seem to recall the pulley clearance issue on another LS3 swap I did....I'll get back to you.

T,

Yeah, you are right, just checked, the -AN fitting will hit the pulley, going to have to do the 50 dollar turn one fitting....go figure, sooooo thanks anyway Andrew....knew it wouldn't be that easy...


T,
