I've got a Baldwin coolant filter mount that I'm about to put in my 7.3. The last thing I need to get ahold of are the barb fittings. I'm not sure if there's anything I need to look out for in terms of temperature rating or anything else. For example, these appear to be dirt cheap but don't say anything about what temp they're rated to:

For all the threads about coolant filters that I've found here, none that I can find go into detail about where they got the fittings, quality of the fittings, etc.

 

Those brass fittings should work just fine. Your engine will not develop enough heat to damage them.
