5/8 male QD to -8an male - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Does anyone know if this fitting exists? I can find it anywhere, and I’m trying to use this nice filter in my new fuel system but it was designed to fit onto a pump.

Other end is 5/8 QD female on the filter.

Is that 5/8 QD a O-ring boss style fitting?

I'm not exactly sure what the connection type is called. Maybe that's why I cant find it online.

I'm trying to get -8an male threads on both ends of the filter.

Cancel that. Its a 74 micron filter made to protect a pump. Not fine enough filtration to save injectors.

Could it be an ORB fitting?

Fore has some on their site.

Are you trying to use that on the suction side of the pump or the pressure ?

74 is fine for a pre-pump filter.

But it is not fine for post pump, for injector protection. Many modern injectors are very fussy, and need 10 microns or less filtration.

And ensure anything pre-pump has a lot of flow so it offers no restriction whatsoever.

While its not word for word, thats exactly what I just said^^^.

Not going to use it for this application.
