Default 8an feed line fittings?

I have a twin pump setup running off the stock lines rightnow. I want to run a 8an feed and then return using the stock line. My question is which bulkhead fitting are y'all using, and how are you connecting it to the twin pumps?

My setup consist of:
Twin 255 pumps, both with 10ga power wires, and separate ground, I'll be triggering the 2nd pump off the nitrous activation.
-8an feed line
Nasty fuel rails
Aeromotive fuel pressure regulator, then going back to the stock line for a return.

Let me know what y'all think?

Yeah, got out here a couple months ago.

As for the pumps, they have 5/16 or 3/8 barb fittings, so I guess I could just run -6 and hose clamp that to those, then run the Y to a bulkhead fitting...

Thanks for helping out bud!

How is that Goat coming along?

I'm gonna be doing this soon with a single 400 walboro. Someone make sure I get this right. Run new -8n from rail to fuel pump, but how do you connect it to the pump just a hose clamp? Then use the existing fuel line for return and just have it dump back in the bucket? Finally you just keep the evap line the way it is right? Do you just drill holes in the top of the bucket for the way the lines are going to be run and then cap off the 2 outlets you aren't using? Sorry for all the questions.
