do you have pics of what you're working with? Hoses from the pump to the firewall would be heater hoses. The LS pumps have pressed in nipple fittings on the pumps. I remove those and tap them for pipe threads (one is 1/2" NPT and the other is 3/8" NPT). Then I can use a pipe to #10 AN fitting and run my #10 heater hoses to the firewall. I'm confused by the 0-ring fitting you mentioned, all the firewall bulkhead heater hose fittings I've used have had normal male AN ends on them, so any #10 AN hose end would work. The A/C fittings are 0-ring #6 and #10 (others sizes optional) but not the water fittings.

yeah Vintage Air gives you AN fittings for the heater hoses. If you go to Old Air's site they sell the heater hose ends, they look just like a/c fittings............. Would have to be crimped onto the hose and you'd be using a non-braided type hose.
