I wanted to use a 150 degree fitting for my Holley power steering pump with the earls AN adapter on it. I would like to run 3/8 tube from the fitting to the pump most of the way and finish off with hose to the pump. How do I connect the tube to this fitting ? The female thread will install on the Earls 6 AN adapter. Does the other end (looks like hose end) screw off ?? Thx

I would just get a -6AN tube nut and sleeve and bent it 150* if you can. If not is not an option, you will need some section of AN hose on the end of that fitting, before you could convert it back to tube properly.

Ahh, that's what I thought. Thank you. I would really like to find an AN male fitting on that hose end side. Any such animal ?? Adapter ??

Have you checked with other other AN suppliers such as Russel,Aeroquip. Or even at your local airport.

It seems custom hose shops are a dying breed. I even sent a mock up to a place (Tubes and Hoses) in Vancouver Washington. http://nwtubesnhoses.com/ , 5 weeks later and no response. Cost me a stock hose and shipping. Their website sure looked good, that was about it. Oh well.

Have you check businesses up here in the Seattle area with Boeing being in the area.

I'm actually from upstate NY. I found that shop online LOL, I may just run all hose and be done with it.
