Cooling line question sn with 701

[Yamisj]

I have a 91 SN with a 701 motor, which has a westcoast head and a stock pipe. There is a small hose that would be connected to the top of cylinder head with a stock head. The head I have has been capped off. I am sure I need to hook this up for proper cooling, but dont know where to get a fitting to fix the problem. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

very interesting, who have thought to block it off with a screw?
mine has the fitting, so i just run a hose to my pisser.
don't really know the thread size unless i take it off and measure or you could try doing this your self.
i think that would be your best bet to match the fitting at the store!

Yes, I did try that I took the screw to the hardware store and the smallest fitting was a 1/4" to a 1/8" nipple.
The person that had the motor before had a aftermarket pipe and they had used two big cooling lines.

Thanks though.

Just get the 1/4 barb X 1/8p fitting then use a inline reducer connector to get to 3/16 or 1/8 line to connect to the stock pipe nipple.

This is a great idea, however the fitting that screws into the head needs to be 1/8th or 3/16th and the smallest one I could find was 1/4. The screw that is used as a cap on the head right now is a metric size.

Thanks

Is your fitting pressed or screwed in?

Problem fixed.

Had a friend custom make a fitting.

Thanks for all the input.
