Also you are converting all the lines to -4an, correct? The Vishnu kit uses smaller lines from the FAV to the nozzles, is that going to be a problem?
Yes I am doing the FULL conversion. The Vishnu system has 1/8 NPT fitting to compression fittings. I want SS all the way so I am going for AN fittings. So I am replacing the inlet and outlet of the FAV and the 2 nozzles as well. I was unable to find a BSPP to -4 AN conversion adapter but yes that would have made things easier. I just broke down and bought the WAAAY OVERPRICED Howerton ones. I dont like doing that but I just chalk it up as $130 of insurance because I couldn't find them anywhere else and I want to do what I can to guard against leaks. I was not able to find the appropriate sized BSPP to AN adapters.

Actually I DID find them in the UK but by the time to account for the currency conversion rate and internatioanl shipping you end up paying about the same. And those were steel not nickel plated brass.

Did you ever get this system 100% up and running?

End results? Parts list?

I finally scored a Vishnu PWM kit and am going to get started on this. Did you ever get yours up and running N54 Fan?
