Why not use what i have and go with AN fitting from the hard line to the injector rail. i can get you the part numbers for the special fittings you need the rest are straight forward.

i am going to have hoses pressed onto those pictured fitting. kinda like the stock lines. i am going to order the earls 14 & 16 mm to 6-an fitting for the stock hardlines and connect them to the "new" lines. i need only 2 more. i figured someone didn't use them or need them anymore. it's cheaper and the same amount of saftey. i'll buy them off someone who isn't using them.

I've bought a couple Stealthrams and never used those fittings. I know I have them around somewhere. Send me a PM. I also have the Accel adapters for stock fuel rails, $20 shipped (never used).

Just an FYI -- my local parker stores (there's 2) won't make me lines for use with gasoline. I've asked. They tell me to get the braided stuff from Summit.

proberbly for liability reasons thats why. I went through the same deal with a local hose store here. I wanted a custom length hose for my fuel pressure gauge and they told me they couldnt do it.

I did stainless braided lines with 90* swivel fittings. Total cost was about $116 shipped. You will need one line to be about 3.5' though, and not 3 like they sell at summit. They were sweet.

I would say that's right -- -6AN female to 3/8" barb.

Just FYI, I use those "push-Lok" style fittings and hose alot and do not recommend using them on a 50 psi line with fuel without using the collar or clamp on it.
The permanent ones are round with ears kinda sticking out of each side.
They fit over the hose and are "crunched" down to clamp the hose onto the fitting. There are several types of them used from different manufacturers.
A small screw clamp will work as well.
Those types of fittings/hose are much better suited for low temperature air service not liquid, although the pressure rating is 150.
With fuel at high pressure do not use hose that feels like an air hose. Get something with some braid in or on it so the working pressure is at least 4:1 of the burst rating. If it doesn't say the rating, ASK!
Personally I would not use "push on" anything for fuel. Too risky.
If you do use it, check it regularly to see if the hose is softening, blistering/bulging in spots or begins to feel really limp. Replace it if needed.
