They do not...I'm sure the adapters are out there to do the conversion though, but I've not looked closely enough at the thread size to know for sure. I think they use straight cut threads with an o-ring if I'm not mistaken, kinda like the t-fitting in the back of the car for the fuel system.

i have already converted my pressure line (pump to rack) with AN fittings, (been like that for over a year) however i want to do the feed line as well. the feed line barb on pump cant be removed and replaced with a AN fitting like the pressure side can. which is why i was asking about a pump that will come with the two fittings already on or have provisions for them.
anyone else, i called turn one and no one ever answers there.

Turn One will install an AN fitting if you ask for the output. They did on my 98 Camaro and they also did a LT1 pump for my CMC car the same way.
We now use PSC instead of Turn One as Mitch posted above.
Also - the rack on both cars had AN -6's there as well. Jeg's carries them.

Be sure and tell them if it's an LS1 pump or an LT1 pump - They spin opposite directions. Also talk to them about your intended usage. This will help them set your flow rate. For the track only cars, we set them pretty low. I've never felt any issues at low speed like I thought I would. Less asist for a track only car is a very good thing.
