AN fittings -16 vs -20

Anybody out there using a radiator with the bungs welded on? If so, are you using a -20 fitting or a -16 fitting. I want to have the bungs welded onto my radiator and I don't know what size would be best for a BBF?

Is this a case of the bigger the better?

What size AN fitting do you have on your water pump? and on you Water Neck on the Manifold?

nothing yet, I still have to buy all of that. They make whatever you want for all the parts you just named...

Either I buy all -20 or all -16 PARTS

I use -12, that -16 and bigger is a pita to work with.

-16 would work fine

I use 12 on gas/nitrous set up with no problems.

I used -10 on the dragster. For the little bit we ran it at the house and track it seemed to work just fine... I'm almost positive Mikey ran -10 on it when he had it too. I would assume he did since that's what the radiator had welded to it.

Sometimes it's counter productive to move too much water through a radiator...

I run -8, just how much water are you wanting to move?

Curt I don't know, just trying to see what will be better. I decided to switch from hose's to AN lines last night!! So I’m just searching for answers right now. I will be driving the mustang on the street sometimes also...

Instead of -20 vs -16, it now looks more like -16 vs -12

Think about how much water goes through a 5/8" water hose. That would be equal to a -10.. No need for the big expense of large fittings and hose.

if your running on the street yo want big hose and a Thermostat, Eveybody else it telling you about race cars.... they don't sit in traffic or run for super long periods. ........
