Fuel line question: AN compression fittings, any count? Hey guys, I am putting a 5.3 in my 69 camaro and I am trying to plan out my fuel lines. I have the entire wrecked truck I am getting the engine from. It looks to me that I can reuse the factory hard lines back to a point under my camaro. From there I would like to run a AN line to the pump, filter, and the tank. I am going to use a walbro inline fuel pump. I have read that many people have used a compression fitting to go from the hard line to the AN line. Are these readily available to fit the GM hardline and what luck have you all have with these?

I just did this on my project. I am a month from finishing up so I can't confirm how they work, but they installed reasonably well. Used Swagelok SS-600-6-6AN which is for a 3/8" tube.
Note that my car is an original 396 car so it came with the larger fuel line. I think most non high performance GM cars used a 5/16 line.
