Good morning, hoping someone here can help me. I purchased a replacement trim pump assembly for my 7.4l with an Alpha 1 Gen 2 drive.

The brass fittings that I removed from the original pump that screw directly into the pump housing are too large for the new pump. (please see pic).

Would someone know the correct adapter size to enable my original hoses to work with this slightly different pump? Appreciate any help.

a 7.4 does not go with a GEN II drive. Inspect the pump threads, there most like inverted flare and do not accept regular threaded fittings
post a pic of the old pump and of the hose ends

Thanks for the response. When I ran the drive serial number (0F743392), that's what came up.

I attached more pics, as you can see the old pump was in rough shape.

Ayuh,..... Welcome Aboard,..... I believe the lines screw directly into the pump, no adapters needed,.....

I would look up the s/steel fittings not the brass to the aluminum .. corrosion ..
