      And thats what I have already, soft lines. I have a 62 nova with EFI and a fuel cell. Years ago I bought some pretty expensive fuel line designed for EFI. And its not failing, but I dont want it to get to that point. So I have the rubber line all the way from the cell to the engine.

      Well I want some piece of mind and hard lines.

      So... The fittings? Are they just a compression flare? For the life of me I cant find a simple article anywhere talking about the line ends. I need to go from a NPT on the cell to a NPT on the pre-filter to the pump. The pump is also NPT. Then to another filter, also NPT.

      Any help on what fittings and what flare I use with the hard line?? Thanks ahead of time for any help.. JR

      So.. Im gonna get some 3/8" hard line, aluminum or stainless. But what I need to know is where do I get the fittings. Maybe not so much where, but what is the flare for hard fuel line. What type of fitting is used?????

      And help guys? Thanks abunch... JR
      If you've never done this before then I'm probably oversimplifing it... If you have a 37* flaring tool you can use tube nuts and sleeves to adapt your hard line to the AN male ends. You get NPT-AN male fittings for your components, then slide the tube nuts/sleeves on your hard line, flare the ends to 37* and then you can attach the hard lines to the AN fittings.
