I want to run my fuel line from the firewall to my Dellerto DRLA 40's in Aeroquip
-06 braided ss, anyone know of an AN fitting that will replace the two Dellorto factory banjo fittings as shown or how I may be able to modify some other AN to work in their place?
Thanks,
Tom

These are the only possibilities I know of.

Thanks JP,
Dellorto is not on their list for AN fittings. I sent them a message and hope they can help.

Looks like aircooled.net has what you are looking for.

I LOVE cars with SS braided fuel lines, 'cause fire damage is so much fun to repair, and there's a lot of profit in it. Seriously, if the oil lines are prone to leaking, why wouldn't the fuel lines be the same? The Cap'n

And the braided stainless hoses are soooo much fun to make!

I have yet to see or hear of (internet guys complain about everything) leaking braided oil lines. I figure they are life limited and would replace them as needed, but
After 7-8 years, mine are still tight......gas lines too. So, WTF Cap?

The only time we had a leak was with the CRAP that Russel used to pass off as equal to Aeroquip hose. Swore I would never buy their products again and that was in 1984.

SS, I have had ones leak after they started getting pretty old.

Well I'm old and sometimes leak under pressure too!

Yeah but is it a slow leak? or just a drip?

I use Aeroquip "pushloc" hoses and fittings. Solved all the leakage problems on a number of cars. Not as sexy looking, but what the hey ............. I've had the SS stuff leak right outta the box. The Cap'n
