Foxbody fuel hard lines to AN conversion
On my lsx fox I need to redo the fuel lines, I removed the stock lines in the engine bay and I'm left with the 5/16's and 1/4" stock hard lines that run under the car.
I need to find a conversion fitting to change hardline to AN.
I went to a hydronic shop and bought some compression fittings but didn't not turn out how I wanted, didn't seal properly.
Where can I buy these fittings and also need to figure out a decent location to install a corvette filter/regulator. It use to be mounted on my fire wall and now I'd like to place it somewhere out of sight.
At ideas?

I looked at doing the same thing for my jeep v8 conversion. The compression fittings are usually only good to about 50 PSI or so. I ended up just running AN lines all the way. In the end piece of mind is worth it, IMO

Either buy steel 37 degree JIC fittings and braze them on the hard lines with acetylene or mapp gas, or use something like what is linked below.
I have used the adapter fittings in the past on Ford powered Mustangs and they worked fine. The fittings I used were not Russel though, I used fittings from which were branded as Steeda. Steeda being a marketing company with cost to performance ratio similar to or worse than SLP.
