I'm kind of in a bind here. When I did the fuel lines for my LT1 I used some quick-release adapters on the fuel rails that let me use AN fittings and lines. The return line connects fine to the factory Saginaw end on the hard line in the engine bay.
But for the fuel feed I had to cut the factory rubber line after the hard line and adapt that to the rest of the AN and braided line. For now it does the trick, but I want to eliminate the jury-rigged section there.

Does anyone know where I can get female/female Saginaw to AN fittings?

This one little thing is surprisingly HARD to find. Jeg's and Summit don't even know what I'm talking about and ANplumbing.com .....although they have the right parts do not ever respond to their e-mail and the phone line is alternately busy for 3 days or unanswered. I think they are out of business perhaps?

Anyway.... where can I find these fittings? -6 OR -8 AN will work for me, but I need the right female end to work with the factory male piece.

 

I've had trouble getting specialty AN fittings as well, and I see Racehose.com is currently down.
Sometimes it's easiest to get the part#'s from the manufacturers website (Earl's, Aeroquip, Russel, etc) and then search for these #'s at Jeg's or Summit. I've found a few this way. You'll have to use the vendor's prefix for each co. attached to the #.
Summit uses three letters (AER-, EAR-, RUS-) and Jeg's uses three Numbers (Aeroquip is 023- , Russell is 799-, Earl's is 361-).
I've never spoken to anybody at Summit or Jegs that knows much about AN fittings. I recently did the fuel, power steering and brake lines on my Camaro, so I feel your pain.
Hope this helps,
