AN to NPT adapter
AN to NPT adapter
Not sure if I am in the right forum...
Undergoing a LSx swap and reasearching different fuel line setups. I am thinking to use the Corvette Filter/ regulator with the required AN quick connect adapters and braided line going from filter to rail and from filter to sending unit.
I am inquiring if the below fitting can be used as a compression fitting to tie into the sending unit feed line. Meaning using a compression sleeve and the nut.

Re: AN to NPT adapter

Neither side of the linked fitting is compatible with a compression sleeve.
I had a similar situation, and my solution was
metal line into
[compression fitting/NPT] into
[NPT/NPT union] accepting
[NPT/AN as shown] then finally
[AN to braided line adapter]
[braided line to fuel rail connection]
Hope the notation makes sense -- the "[../..]" indicates fitting ends

Good luck,
kk
Or you can find an [AN/compression] on the Earls website link...

Or you can find an [AN/compression] at the Earl's website...

PS
Thanks for serving our country.
The mods listed in your signature will be jam-up.
However, when executing, the UMI SFC's can impact the exhaust
system clearance, so plan accordingly to execute together.
I thought I had some pics in inventory, but neglected those poses.
Will take some ASAP & re-post to illustrate.
Good luck.

Re: AN to NPT adapter
Already have compression unions in place. Just wasn't sure what was available to mate AN fittings to compression. I found some fittings that will work with the (Insert supplier here) AN to NPT fittings I have found
... No flaming required.
