I need two 1/2" NPT (male) to 3/4 Barb 90 degree fitting. I've searched everywhere, but can't find one. I can find them everywhere in the US but by the time they ship it here two fittings cost me $50-$90 dollars which is a little unreasonable.
Looking for Brass or Aluminum, no steel/plastic as it is threading into an aluminum tank.
Something like this:

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

you might wanna investigate some irrigation parts supply stores if you can't find it anywhere else. You tried Napa right?

Irrigation parts are typically plastic or steel, neither are ideal for automotive use. I tried NAPA/CDN Tire/Home Depot/Rona/Lowes/Specialty Plumbing Stores/Performance Improvements...
If I had boatloads of cash to blow I could spend $200 and get fittings that work, sadly I don't hence why I still drive a 2002 Focus

if you want I have a friend who could probably machine these for you I don't know how much he'd charge though nor do I know how fast his turn around time is. i'm assuming they'd be aluminum (billet??)

Tried them before I left work, 2-4 week wait and $22/fitting, at this point I don't mind the $22 a fitting its the 2-4 week wait. I read posts in other forums of guys picking these up for a couple dollars at their local hardware store.
Of course this is in USA where they have a proper supply of products in stores.

If you can find a place in Niagara Falls that sells what you need I can pick them up for you next time I`m down there - probably Sat the 19th - or you can buy them online and send them to my N.Falls NY address; PM me either way if that helps.

Somehow this damn fitting can't be found easily. I'm going to order one from the great USA, but for now its done with some home fittings from homedepot/lowes.
Also got the VC powdercoated while they were recoating the tank...celphone pics make the colour look weird but its a nice gloss red.
