Maybe this is more of a fuel cell fitting question but none the less here I am asking for guidance.

I'm still running the stock engine (for now) in my 84 pup (like the 81 luv) but I am running a fuel cell cause I had to ditch the factory tank as it was in the way of my four link.....

ok, so I still have the stock fuel line running from the engine back to where the old tank was. My new cell has male AN fittings. I need to go from the stock fuel line to these AN fittings. the stock line is very small in diameter compared to the fittings on the cell and appear to use barb type fittings with a clamp around the hose and the barb. Is there such a thing as a AN female to male barbed fitting? Thats what I'm looking for unless you all have sugestions on plumbing this thing up....

Also this fuel cell has two fuel pickups, I guess I'll need a fitting to block one of these off, any ideas?

I've looked though summit and the supplier catalogs and I'm lost when it comes to this AN stuff. I know I have to get the same size AN as what the cell has but I cant find quite what I'm looking for.....



any ideas?

Look at Jegs. They have a better selection of that type of hardware. There are fittings that go from a hard tube to -an. Basicaly start at the cell. -8 from the cell, braided or aluminum tube to your existing line where youll have to adapt down to what ever size your tube is. Jegs carries fittings to adapt hard tube to whatever. Just give them a call and explain what youre doing. I bought some aluminum line for mine and its alot smaller than -8. So Im kinda in the same boat. Jegs helped me out. And yes they do have plugs for the other outlet side on the cell.
