lt1 conversion and fuel lines question

I'm in a jam... I was able to use the double flair kit to make the connection from the fule lines on the fire wall. Then I cut and double flaired the quick connect line that goes into the fuel pressue regular and the hard line that goes into the intake. But they leak like crazy.

What I'd like to do is put fittings onto both sides of the fuel rails, then have braded line that would connect to the hard lines on the fire wall. My only problem is that I don't know how or what to use to do this...

Or is there another way/solution?

man i'm

any info would be great.

The shop that helped me used some fittings that had - 6an on one side and a quick disconnecting fitting on the other. They were polished stainless steel also, or you can have -6AN fittings welded to the fuel rails......good luck.

Aeroquip is the way to go...-6AN.

Have you checked out my site, with the pictures of my fuel set-up? It's the way to go...IMO. Easy and it works real well.

Good luck.
