Fitting Intake Brake Booster 3/8in Hose Barb

The Fitting Intake Brake Booster 3/8in Hose Barb from ICT BILLET is a precision aluminum adapter engineered to bridge OEM intake manifold ports with modern aftermarket vacuum systems. Built for engine builders, performance shops, and serious enthusiasts tackling custom intake manifold configurations, this fitting eliminates the guesswork when connecting brake booster vacuum lines to non-standard manifold designs. Whether you're installing a fuel injection conversion, upgrading to a modern power brake system, or fabricating a custom engine bay layout, this adapter ensures leak-free vacuum transfer without modification to original components.

Machined from aircraft-grade aluminum and finished in clear anodize, the Fitting Intake Brake Booster features a straight barb design rated for 3/8-inch hose connections—the industry standard for vacuum brake booster plumbing on street rods, restorations, and engine swaps. The clear anodize protective layer resists corrosion in under-hood environments while maintaining a clean, professional appearance. The straight configuration eliminates flow turbulence compared to 90-degree elbows, preserving brake system response and reducing the risk of vacuum leaks that can soft-pedal brake feel. Compact dimensions (1 x 0.5 x 2.5 inches) allow installation in tight engine bay spaces without sacrificing durability or structural integrity.

This fitting is ideal for fabricators converting carbureted engines to fuel injection, street rod builders integrating modern brake systems, and anyone installing a non-OEM intake manifold on classic platforms. Mechanic shops use this adapter to accommodate vacuum line routing in engine swaps where manifold port locations don't align with stock brake booster fittings. The barbed design grips standard 3/8-inch vacuum hose securely without clamps in many applications, though hose clamps are recommended for high-vibration environments. Verify intake manifold port diameter and brake booster inlet size before purchase to ensure proper fit and vacuum system integrity.
