Man, no offense but if you don't know what you're buying you probably don't need it.

Are you using a D series hose on a B series engine? -> Almost too short?

Youre going about this the wrong way...by a lot...

Explain the actual problem before you think you need to dump big bucks on a useless mod.

I had plans to make SS fuel lines but because of the differences of all the banjos i decided against it. Also there is not enough interest in these to make them.

Quick break down on AN sizes, each size is to the 1/16. So you have -8AN = 8/16 = 1/2'' hose. Get it? For stock fuel i wouldnt go bigger then -6AN. What i recommend is going down to your local hose maker and see if he has a banjo that fits on your fail. Another thing you could try doing is pulling out your stock piece from the rail and tapping it with a -6AN fitting then putting a hose end on it.

If non of this makes any sense to you i highly recommend you do not do it.

I see no point to anyone owning anything other than the stock line, unless theyre pushing over 500whp.
If it doesnt fit, you have the wrong line - its that simple.

I guess you care more about looks than function, so do what you want.
