AN fittings to rear iron/front cover

Im running some -10 braided line for my oil cooler and Im wondering what the thread is on the 12a front cover and the rear iron outlet so I can get some AN fittings for this.

Any one know?

According to Racing Beat, it looks like they are front 16mm and rear 18mm.

Yep, 16x1.5 and 18x1.5. You can buy the adapters for like $6 through Summit Racing.

Thanks guys. I'm hoping to find these in the black and gold finish to color match everything. The racing beat ones arnt very appealing and will be the only fittings different. I get a little OCD when it comes to certain things, and matching fittings are one of them...

the RB fittings are steel, which is nice.

Peejay - The Fragola brand are the ones I went with.

If you want steel just look for JIC fittings. They are the exact same, if you get the 37 degree taper, as AN fittings, but they're steel. JIC is the route I will be going from this point forward.
