The side with one big one is the output to the rail, the two smaller ones are the return and the input, i forget which one is which though.

Both bczze and I use a piece of the OEM Fuel line with a compression fitting to AN fitting.. I got my OEM line from a junk yard.. just broke off the end of the OEM fuel lines. Doman I this makes a piece of tubing that has the correct fitting on each end..

You should also be able to use Dorman PN 107F. It has an NPT fitting on one end, rather than the double-sided quick-connect-style that hte 800-155 has.

72chevelle6.0 is correct on what I have done. 95 Impala tank, Racetronix B-Body pump kit and the usual AN and Braided hoses... there are Compression to AN adpater/fittings on the outlet side of the FPR and on the hard line to the front. With a old piece of tubing with the correct barb end on it.

I used the Russell QD on the rest. But after doing some of this. then next time I will braze on some AN fittngs on the Hard line and skip the QD'sand the Tanks Sender for the Feed and return lines. It would be cheaper and more secure.

Russell PN 640940 also works. It converts from 3/8" quick-connect (male) to -6 AN (male).

I received part no. 107f from dorman today and it doesn't seem to fit into the corvette filter outlet...unless excessive force is needed to put it in...

I just ordered russel 640940 from JEGS, it looks different, and should work.

Here's a picture of 107f...the quick disconnect side doesnt look quite right. I'm not sure if this is just a bad one, or if they are all like this.

The length of the tubing past the bead looks short.
I ordered this and it worked. I added my own flare on the end though.
