Default Stainless braided fuel lines from filter to intake

Trying to figure out how to plumb my fuel system. I have a 2005 6.0 with the returnless style intake, which requires the 99-04 corvette fuel filter with built in regulator. I previously already had stainless braided (-6an) lines running from my tank to my previous motor and would like to keep them, but I am not sure how to connect my -6AN lines to the corvette filter. Can anyone help me out with what they did or part numbers?


Also while I am here, I would like to run -6an braided lines from my tranny to my radiator/cooler. I think I know what fittings to screw into the trans case, but I am not sure what fittings to use to connect to the radiator and cooler

Do you have the filter with 2 ports on IN/return and 1 on the out? If so they make the quick disconnect AN fitting. I believe they have both 6AN male with 3/8" and 5/16" female QC

I'm using and adjustable Aeromotive A1000 inline pump and return style external regulator for boost reference. It all uses -an fittings. I also used a 3/8 compression/-6an fitting on my fuel rail.

In the appropriate sizes.

As I recall you will need 1 of the first one, 2 of the second one, and 1 of the 2nd one but in 5/16ths for the return side.

But be sure to mic them yourself cause that is just to the best of my recollection.

as to the radiator or cooler you need to find out what size threads are on your radiator and just get an adapter to -6. Summit carries them for basically every possible thread you could have.
