Banjo bolt thread size

[blkjack]

Does anyone know the thread size for the banjo bolts for the VP44 and the fuel filter housing? Looking to replace the restricted line between the two was going to go with the JIC fittings and needed to know what size the threads are and what size fittings to use any info on this thanks.

M12 for sure - the question is - are they 1.25, 1.5, or 1.75 threads?

Threads are 12mm X 1.5 TPI, I have ordered from Jeg's before.
Another thing you should know, is on the late filter canisters, you can drill and tap the fittings out to 3/8" pipe, for something that flows much more and is much easier to work with when finding fittings. I did it on mine, and actually drilled a 5/16" hole through the fuel heater, in order to get some more flow goin on.

do you mean the stock fitting or the 12mm X 06MJIC? or the canister top?

inside the canister? i have an airdog150 and per the instructions i skipped the factory canister and no i want to put it back into the loop. air dog used 12mm X -8 JIC with o ring. what is the difference between JIC 08 and 06.
i'm not trying to add a giant restriction, just a fuel heater

I was looking for the fittings from the fuel canister outlet to the vp44 inlet and i think the difference between the JIC 08 and JIC 06 is the diameter of the flare side of the fitting...

i used airdogs 12mm X -08JIC
unscrew bango and move line out of way. then just thread the 12mm side into VP44. i left the stock return alone. i believe the overflow valve is in the return bango.
