I'm not sure what size your factory lines are, or where you could get this locally, but if you get stuck these guys send worldwide.

Those Russell 64085 Specialty Adapter Fittings are available from the vendors who support these forums.

You might take a second and read this thread before deciding on the Russell quick disconnect fittings:

Although the ones I've used in the past never blew off under pressure, they were very hard to tell when they were or were not secure on the hard line.

No problem... if I hadn't had a bad experience with those fittings before, I wouldn't even mention it.

i was lookin at the stock fuel line today and my fuel lines dont hook to the front of the fuel rails like this, it goes into the side like this


and hooks up to quick connect on finder like this


so is this still gona work?

i think im gona have to buy another russell fitting and straight piece to make it work.

I assumed you were using it for aftermarket rails. A second fitting will make it plug into stock lines. I would use two, -6an straight hose ends, and eliminate the 90* I reccomended.

yea its fine i already ordered what u suggested earlier, i should have looked at my car better before i ordered, ill just use it when i get aftermarket rails later. i ordered another straight and russell fitting to make it work with the stock rails. it didnt cost as much as i thought it would, about 75 bucks for everything shipped.

You guys can always pick up the metal retaining clips that insert inside the fittings to keep them from coming off.

I've never seen those, what car would they be found on? Or what part number would they be? I have the Russell fittings and I was concerned about the cheap plastic clips, too. I bought new ones (to replace the new ones that came with the Russell fittings) from Advance Auto and they are much sturdier, but still plastic.

so is the other line that comes up next to the one that goes to the fuel rails the fuel pressure regulator line or return line or something like that? is it the same size as the other one cause i got enough braided line to both i would just have to buy more fittings.

I'm workin on making a stainless braided line from the engine bay to the fuel rail, because I accidentally kinked the stock line when replacing the intake manifold with a painted one. It's going to be almost $80 for all the parts, I'm ordering this weekend, I will update the thread when it's complete.
