Default HELP! Broken oil feed fitting on Vortech

CRAP! I was reinstalling my vortech and I broke off the npt/bspt adapter.

It's a 1/8 npt x 1/8 npt straight tee, which I can probably find, but does anyone know where to get a 1/8npt x 1/8 bsp adapter?

Anyone in south florida preferably?

Thanks

Believe it or not, you might find what you need at Home Depot. Also Check with Murrays or Speed and Truck World. I would check with Home Depot first.

I looked at home depot previously and they don't have anything smaller than 1/4 npt; all of these fittings are 1/8 npt.

Murrays or Speed and truck world.... That's a good idea; I'll check with them tomorrow.

I called Vortech to see if they would overnight it to me but they said they couldn't get it to me until thursday. Unfortunately I'm supposed to go to japtrix on wednesday and then to Sebring on thursday, so I really want to find it tomorrow.

this might be your lucky day. I have the T fitting and the male/female fitting right here in front of me. You can have them for free.
