Need to some 6-AN to 3/8" (9.5mm) barbed and 6-AN to 5/16" (8mm) barbed fittings. I can find on the web, but was wondering if I can find this stuff locally?
Mostly, just trying to save on shipping. For example, I need this adapter from CBPerformance: http://www.cbperformance.com/ProductDetail...88&CartID=1 However, I also need these: 1. 45 degree 6-AN to 3/8" (9.5mm) barbed 2. 45 degree 6-AN to 5/16" (8mm) barbed But CBPerformance doesn't carry these. In fact, the only place I see item #2 (45 degree 6-AN to 5/16" (8mm) barbed) is on eBay and it ships from china. I'm looking to do a setup similar to this: http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...=241493&hl= except I am using FI so will have the return line (and thus the need for item #2 above. I could always buy an SS 9.5 to 8mm adapter from Tangerine, but I was just hoping to come right from the SS lines in the tunnel to the tank. Note: My fuel pump is being mounted on rear firewall (not original rear location). |

One more quick follow up before I get to ordering stuff:
1. Do I need the CBPerformance 8-AN Fuel tank adapter ( https://www.cbperformance.com/ProductDetail...roductCode=3289 ) on the supply side coming from the tank or will the 6-AN ( https://www.cbperformance.com/ProductDetail...roductCode=3288 ) work for a stock 2.0L? So far my plan for up front is (note: I'm mounting the fuel pump in the rear on the firewall): 1. Supply side of tank --> 6-AN Fuel tank adapter (CB Performance 3288) --> 6-AN Female to 3/8" (9.5mm) hose barb 45 degrees --> 9.5mm 30R9 hose to 9.5mm SS tunnel supply line. 2. For the return: 8mm SS tunnel return --> 8mm 30R9 hose to 8mm-to-9.5mm adapter from Tangerine Racing --> 9.5mm 30R9 hose to 3/8" (9.5mm) hose barb 45 degree to female 6-AN --> 6-AN Fuel tank adapter (CB Performance 3288) --> Return side of tank |

I'm running the AN8 on supply and AN6 on return. My fuel pump is a -8 fitting so it works great for my setup. You don't need 400L per hour @ 65 psi like I do. If you are going to Army Navy (AN) fittings, go all the way and get rid of adapter hoses and the like. It's way overkill for a stock motor but it will be a complete systems |
