Brake fitting for Holley 4175
I'm trying to figure out which fitting to buy to adapt the brake vacuum line that comes out of the back of the stock quadrajet (81 Corvette). There is a place on the back of the Holley for this, but having trouble identifying the thread. Can anyone assist with this? thanks

from memory I think that is a 1/8" npt thread.
go to a local hardware store and buy a cheap 1/8npt pipe ext.
and try it, to verify size.
Do not force it on, you may crack the carb. base.or cross thread the hole.
remeber npt require a bit of selant on them, I prefer teflon paste.

I did this about a month ago. The Napa by my house had the adaptor fitting that screwed right in. It was a Gates part. I think I still have the plastic bag that it came in to get a part number.
Thanks for the tip on the sealant. I may have to check for a leak there.

It should be in the box that my carb was in, which is sitting on my work bench in my garage at home. I will check when I get home tonight.
I took the whole carb in to the store with me, along with the hard line that goes to the brake booster.
