350z LM7 Swap I am going to copy and paste my exact words from the Z forum i posted in. I put this thread in this section because i need to know what fittings i need coming off of the LM7 , (5.3) fuel rail/lines so i can make my own lines to go into my nissan lines. It is way better than paying 300 to sikky for theirs. Also maybe if you knew the power steering thread sizes or a link to the adapter fittings. Anyways here you go.
__________________________________________________ ______
Going boosted 5.3 in my "extra Z" i picked this up, and sold the motor. I have bought an entire 2000 2wd chevrolet 1500. For cheap. But now i am looking for an alternative to buying the sikky kit for fittings like fuel lines, master cylinder and clutch lines, and power steering lines. If i could make my own with AN fittings the cost would be significantly less than the nearly 700 bucks for all three of those from SIKKY.
SO does anyone know what i need to buy? or does anyone make them on the forums and sell them, or does anyone know the thread sizes for the adapters so i can make my own lines.

Fuel lines, as in rail fittings?
5/16 clip-on with a -6 Male for return.
3/8 clip-on with -6 Male for feed.
Should be able to score them both for $25 or less.
For the power steering, you'll need:
M16x1.50 o-ring to -6AN Male
M18x1.50 o-ring to -6AN Male
Should be able to score all 3 for $40 bucks.
Clutch fittings aren't a specific size. Just look for standard -3 AN T56 master cylinder fittings. You can score 2 for $25 or so.

Website, I would say Summit Racing. If you order over $100 worth, shipping is free. They should have all of this in stock. Earl's and Russel's both make all of the fittings needed and Summit carries them all.
