3/8 fuel line fitting to -6 AN ?
 
I,m trying to find a fitting to go from a steel 3/8 fuel line which has ,Im guessing a male 1/2 in. fitting to convert to a -6 male to run to my mech. fuel pump from the tank.I don,t seem to see one online but don,t know if I,m wording it wrong.I see the ones that have a Ferrel style but was wanting the other so I don,t have to cut

Reall not sure what your looking for there. Are you saying you want to mate a tubing flare to an-6? I doubt it's 1/2" tubing (Tubing is measured OD) more likekly 5/16" or 3/8"


Here's a link to Slummits list of Earls Inverted flare to AN- fittings

Are you wanting to go from a 3/8" inverted flare to a -6 male?

low pressure lines can use a hard-tube to AN adapter, or you can buy a JIC 37* flare tool and actually just flare one on. They make 1/2" to 3/8" reducer fuel fittings, and then they make 3/8 NPT to -6AN adapter fittings.

You may not find a "one-fitting" solution, unless you flare it yourself or use the hard tube adapter. The problem with AN conversion fittings is that odd-size stuff has a 2-3x higher price than commonly used ones.

It is a 3/8 hard steel hard line but I was measuring the flared male fitting on the end which looks like1/2 inch

You will have to find a hydraulic or fitting shop , but they are out their . I have a good hydraulic shop in town ( he also drag races ) For my 69 Camaro I have small amount of rubber hose to the pump and an inverted flair male to -6 in the pump and -6 with 2-90 's on each end going to the carb
