You can buy a metric-to-8an adapter and use a 90 fitting. I've done it before, the only downfall is that you can really use that metal cover anymore. The fittings will hit it.

They make a banjo to -8 fitting. I believe summit sells it, or just use two fuel injector clamps and flare the hard line. As for the return, I like to use the old factory feed line as the new return. It works well and saves on buying more braided hose and fittings.

Or save your money, if you're using a walbro feeding a Bosch pump, the factory lines are more than sufficient.

I used goodridge 776-08-m14 m14 to -8AN banjo adapter. The cover still fits over the banjo adapter.

I had to hammer down the stays and avoid overtightening the banjo bolt until I can find a longer one.
