Part number for heater hose fitting on smallblock?

[mshred]

Hey guys,

I need to order the fitting that the heater hose connects to on the intake manifold on a smallblock, particularly a 340....the dealer has no idea what im talking about, so i would be a lot better off with a part number to give them to see if they have the fitting available...if anybody has the mopar number, or knows of a number for the fittin from somewhere else please share as i am going to need it real soon

thanks!
Matthew

Look in the MoPar performance catolog for the part and number,

OH wait, I miss read, I read in my head the part was the hose. The fitting can be had at Home DePot or Lowes, Ace hardware stores etc.........

yea its not in the catalog and the dealers books only go back to certain years which arent very early models....where can i find a heater hose fitting at home depot for an intake manifold? i guess in the heater hose seection?

Hey Matthew,

Are you talking about the heater hose or bypass hose??? As stated before you can get these fittings at Depot, Lowes etc. The fittings in the intake are pipe thread, just need the hose size on the other end. Take a piecew of hose with you to match it up. If memory serves me, the intake is 1/2" pipe and the bypass is 5/8" NPT.

I yanked the heater hose fitting off an old intake,for the bypass hose I hit the plumbing section in Home Depot.

The earlier MP catologs sold the fittings, and I don't mean old *** ones ethier.

hey guys, i think you are getting confused here...im not talking about the water pump bypass fitting as i know that it is pipe thread....im talking about the fitting for the actual heater hose itself that is on the intake manifold...or maybe im the one who is confused here?

You can use a metal pipe for the fitting available at your local hardware store or Lowes / Home Depot like others above said. Or if you want a reproduction fitting:

Most local auto parts stores will have the heater hose fitting. I know they sell them in those "Help" sections.
