WTB: Tall pump inlet fitting

One of these.





Many things we do naturally become difficult only when we try to make them intellectual subjects. It is possible to know so much about a subject that you become ignorant.

I thought Libby had posted a source on these in the past.  You might just PM him on this.  His tap and fitting of this piece is one of the best ways I have seen to read the IP pressure.  The drill on the IP and tap for fitting is second only because of difficulty level being higher.

Yeah the only one I have spare is drilled and tapped for pump pressure reading, I can actually use it but I'd rather not.
I searched around but no luck, will PM him.  Thanks..

 The dealership sells them,.. but the one I got from them isn't tall enough to use it to read pressure on the outlet.
 About half stock height
 
 ,.. but maybe that's not what you are doing.
 Maybe you are just trying to get the input line a little taller for clearance reasons.
