Yeah, they probably want $100! You can get hard line to AN adapters from Jegs/Summit for $7. Made by russell performance.

For the reg/filter, I used the cutoff section from that originally mated to the fuel rail and cut it to length. One end (male)mates to the reg/filter (female) the other end was straight hard line that I attached the above mentioned adapter to. Did the same thing at the fuel rail, just attached the hard line adapter right to the fuel rail leaving me with an AN fitting.

A picture is worth 1K words. So, here is 3K words:

I just bought a piece of 3/8 tubing at NAPA that has the right "bump" to go into the filter.

67ls1CamaroProject: Thanks for the tips on the hard tube adapters. They're going to work out perfectly. Those pics are worth at least 1000 words each.

FYI: Pep Boys (and any other good parts supply) has hard line repair kits with the quick disconnect on them. Pep Boys has the repair kits in 5/16 and 3/8 inch, different straight lengths and 90 deg.
