Was wondering if anyone has upgraded their fuel lines by cutting and flairing the ends of the sending unit?
I would like to do away with any rubber hose on my sbc swap and go with AN fittings and braided lines.
perhaps there is another GM sender of the same size already fitted this way? Thank you, Ray

Russell makes a connector that should clip to the fuel line. Another method is to cut the line, put a flare nut w fitting on the tube and use a 30* AN flaring tool to make the flare to fit to the #8 AN male braided hose end.
