Default Vortech 8:1 FMU?

Ive got a vortech fmu but the fittings my instructions said I needed dont fit. (supernatural kit for powerdyne)
Does anyone know what size or part number is for the 2 fittings that go on the bottom of the fmu?

FMUs typically take 1/4" NPT fittings on the fuel feed and return that screw into the FMU housing. Your results may differ, but I doubt it.

Hi VetteByrd, the Vortech FMU valve body is actually tapped for 1/8" NPT, BUT the one fitting which is an elbow cannot be removed unless you cut it first (otherwise you damage the Vortech valve).
The fittings that are pre-installed in the Vortech FMU are SAE #4 (45 degree vs. AN which is 37 degree). I have all sorts of lines for these units and can set you up with any Plug-N-Play combo you might want. Just give me a call @ 201-891-4690 or email: greg@blowerworks.net. Good Luck, Greg
