Anyone know where I can find turbo drain hose elbow?
I need to make a line for My setup and I could really use a hose elbow around 7/8" that would take the temperature.
Looked for it at My local parker hoses dealer and they only had a silicone hose rated for 300f and it was straight, I tried it but the angles are too sharp and an elbow (hose) is needed.
Thanks.

 

Any chance of a hard-line 7/8" 90* fitting, and you can just run straights to either end?

Another possibility, though I've only used it on vacuum lines on gassers, is to stick a spring inside the hose. It will let it bend without crimping. As long as it is thick enough to keep the hose round, but thin enough to not obstruct flow. It's always a last resort, anyways.

I figure a 7/8-ish OD-diameter throttle return spring would be perfect, they're tightly wound, but still not a very strong spring, and thin enough to not obstruct flow too badly.

 

I tried the hard line elbow but the angles are just too sharp it must be a hose elbow.
The silicon coupler I use on the line has been there for years, anyone know a company selling this fittings?

Thanks.

 

You might try Veracious Motorsports.

I have bought from them before and they have a lot of hard-to-find silicone hose stuff.


The drain is 7/8" I.D.


As for drain volume, a 3/8 hose would carry it.

I have tested the volume a couple times and the amount of oil being cycled is very little compared to the capacity a 7/8 steel tube is capable of.

 

I found this one, they have them in black and blue, not sure if they have any differences besides the color. Any thoughts?

Thanks.

 

I wonder what makes the black more expensive than the blue ??
