Fuel fittings

What is the best way to get from the TPI saginaw fuel rail fitting to barbed fittings? I see TPI to AN fittings all over the place, but thats it.

i would think you could just screw a mail into the rail and on the other side it could have a barbed fitting? or maybe something like that

Saginaw and Pip threads are different. I'm not sure you'll find saginaw to barb adapters. I'd just recommend going sag to AN.

I was trying to keep the costs down (and make it appear stock). I may just use the new socketless fittings.

On a side note, are the stock fuel filters pipe thread?
