My 99 Miata is the donor to my 1964 Volvo P1800.
My 1964 Volvo P1800 is getting a full 99 Miata transplant from radiator to rear muffler and everything in between. To make this work I have stretched the front suspension forward 7.2". This causes the need for new custom hoses (both pressure and return). We have lots of hydraulic hoses shops nearby but I doubt they will have the necessary matching end fittings.
What has been done for custom hoses. Would love for someone to help me get the right part numbers for AN type fittings or preferably fittings that a local shop could crimp on new hose. OR the name of a trusted shop that has been used on here.
Many Thanks, Steve

The return line is low pressure and simply held on with host clamps, any decent auto parts store should have PS return hose available by the foot, also available readily online. As for the pressure side, hydraulic hose shops actually very often have what is needed, especially if they work on fork lifts as many forklifts are of Asian origin and use metric fittings and hoses.

Long time ago, details lost, but I used AN fittings on my racecar PS, not sure about the pump itself but the rack and the PS cooler (a generic barrel cooler ex-Ebay) were all AN.
