Default AN lines for radiator hoses

What size do you need to run on a track only car? I have found -16AN fittings is that correct size?

Check your local hydraulic shop (Parker Store, etc)... -20 in a JIC 37 fitting. They make JIC 37s up to like -34... If you're looking for aluminum, dunno.

we ran dual -12 on our last setup. Personally, I didnt think it was enough for a street driver, but making a drive in it, the temps did stay around 200 with a Griffin radiator and a couple spal fans. I would go bigger if possible. for big AN lines, look to the Nascar guys.

This was with a CSR remote pump

I'm using -20 AN on mine in black braided. You can find it on summit's website. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/EAR-350620ERL/ $113 for 6ft of it. Then you need fittings, and bungs.

Im going with -16 since thats the fittings I can get for my water pump setup. I can't see it being a problem on a track only car.
