Hydro boost questions

Hello all, I'm working on making lines for my hydro boost set up and have some questions on sizes. I don't have the parts to measure and hours of googling has just confused me more.


Does anyone know the size and style of the flare fittings that go into the hydro boost. I know the lines are 5/16 but I can't find the fitting thread sizes. I believe they are metric but unsure. I also have no idea if they're standard inverse flare or are they the oring type.


Thanks in advance. I'm a new member and hoping y'all can help me get on the road.

I don't know the answers to your questions, but perhaps the links below will help a bit.

These were taken from the 7.3L PSD Tech Folder thread at the top of the sub-forum main page.

One port is M16x1.5 the other is M18-1.5, I forget which is which. I got mine from summit. I want to say they can be had in either -6 or -8.
Just a stock photo of what mine look like, I think the smaller one in the pic is for folks that want snazzy an line for the return hose. I didn't and just kept the hose barb for that.
