Anyone know what fittings are used for the steam pipe at the back of the LT1 heads? I dont want to run the factory steam pipe setup and instead I want to run stainless hardlines but dont know which fittings to use.

I am thinking head head has one (1/4" ??) line that goes into some kind of connector or T that then goes where ever it needs to go. Any suggestions?

If someone has done something like this before, please let me know what worked for you.

Thanks

 

The stock bolts are more banjo fittings than bolts. You wont find these in any store and would have to be machined

 

I'm trying to find what I saw a while back. Yes, you can make something custom up using some kind of T-fitting. I remember what a pain and how stupid that crossover tube and banjo bolts setup was when I had to re-install it, definitely going to make a custom line instead the next time I have to re-install the heads.

I found something but not what I remember looking at:
