Default Corvette fuel filter adapter

Where can i get the quick connect style adapter to use with the corvette style fuel filter for a 6.0 truck engine, it seems to be the cheapest option but i need the adapter or something that will work, any help is appreciated.

cdwood, I believe what you are looking for is Dorman part #800-155. Anyplace that carries Dorman products should be able to get it for you. I am getting mine from Summit Racing. Do a search on their website and a picture of it should come up or else go on the Dorman Products website and search for that part number. Hope this helps you.

I used Russel 640850 and 640860 fittings for the feed/return and I believe the Dorman 800-155 for the fuel filter exit.

Pretty sure all the truck motors have the regulator built into the rail, at least all the ones I have dealt with have. Are you are planning to change intake/rails?

After a certain year they moved from the rail to the tank. I want to say mid year in 06? Mine is an 08 with a returnless system.

i used russell 640853 and 640863 (black versions of what wayne used) on inlet/return, and 640940 on the outlet. i am not pleased at the fact that the inlet/return fittings were a serious pain to get onto the fpr and that they touch, but they do work otherwise.
