Just converted my hard steel fuel lines to AN fittings in the engine bay by
using the following stainless steel parts from Swagelok:
SS-8M0-7-4 (8mm tube to 1/4 FNPT) $9
SS-6AN-1-4 (1/4 MNPT to -6 AN) $11
Nice part is you don't need any special tools like a 37deg flaring tool...
just two open-end wrenches. The fittings flare themselves to the pipe.
And they're good to pressures & temperatures way beyond what they'll ever
see in your car.
Any industrial plumbing supply store should be able to get these for you and
supply you with a CD of all their thousands of different fittings.
Good luck EFI and turbo converters!
