Fuel line fittings

So mounted on the drivers side accessory bracket, above the power steering pump, there are 2 fuel line extensions. The ends of them are those saginaw type of lines. But what's the type of the female fitting (on the braided hose) called?

And these would be inlet/outlet at the fuel filter I believe?

Re: Fuel line fittings

Ok thanks. I wasn't sure if that GM flare would actually seal in an AN6.

It won't without an adapter. All the TPI hardline fittings are going to be the metric O-ring type. If you want to use AN hoses, you need adapters.

Check out this thread - https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/alte...-fittings.html or just Google "TPI fuel line adapter".
