OEM fuel filter for LT1 swap?

I need some help with my fuel system I am swapping an LT1 into my 68 Firebird and I would like to find an OEM fuel filter that had female pipe thread fittings that I could adapt to AN fittings. If anyone has any ideas I would appreciate any help. Thanks
Mike

The stock LT1 filter does have female threads on one end, but a funky snap fitting on the other end. Are you looking for a filter that has female threads on both ends?

SX billet filter will be exactly what you need. You can see mine, mounted to the subframe rail right above the driver's side exhaust turndown:

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you guy's,yes Compstall I was hoping to find an OEM filter with female NPT fittings in both ends. It looks like I may go with the SX filter that Injuneer recommended. Thanks again for the help.
