fuel pressure regulator help

my car is a 92 trans am i am swaping the tpi over to carb. my reglator is a barry grant 171021 i am using the factory in tank fuel pump. the problem i am having is converting the factory fuel lines (inlet and bypass) to the regulator i am going to use rubber hose from the regulator to the carb. i cannot find any kinds of adaptors to adapt the fuel lines to the 3/8 npt regulator. this is all i lack to get my car running..

i used a piece of 1/8X3 aluminum stock from lowes. bent it and drilled a hole for the return line on the bottom. this is the best pic i have of it.
