Replace a common cooling-system weak point with the Brass Inlet Manifold Coolant / Water Hose Adaptor, designed for Holden VN, VP and VR Commodore models equipped with the 3.8-litre ECOTEC V6 or earlier Buick-derived 3800 V6 engine. This heavy-duty replacement fitting takes the place of the original plastic inlet manifold adaptor, which can become brittle after prolonged exposure to engine heat and coolant. CNC-machined from solid brass, it offers a robust alternative for restoring a secure coolant hose connection at the inlet manifold.

  • Solid Brass Construction: CNC-machined from brass to provide a durable alternative to ageing and crack-prone plastic fittings.

  • Integrated Mounting Flange: Includes a built-in mounting flange with bolt hole for secure location at the inlet manifold.

  • Pre-Installed O-Ring Seal: Supplied with a rubber O-ring fitted to assist in creating a sealed connection between the adaptor and manifold.

  • Ideal For Preventative Maintenance Or Repairs: A practical upgrade when replacing a leaking, cracked, brittle or damaged original plastic adaptor.
