I found these fittings that connect directly to the nnbs/tbss 3/8 male Quick Disconnect fuel rail supply, and the outlet of the Corvette fuel filter/regulator (3/8 female QD). Connect them with the desired length PTFE hose, and plumb it up. My total with shipping directly from Racetronix was $49. I used 2' of the good hose.

Racetronix - - Fitting, PTFE -6 » QD 3/8" Male, BLACK

I went with this Collar Lock style

But if you want, they have the button style.

Just got a call from Racetronix. Great customer service. He informed me that the 3/8 QD fitting Inside Diameter is comparable to -8AN hose, not -6AN. The links above are for a "Step down" fitting. They changed my order to -8AN and ate the 73 cents I owed them. Nice guy.

He also said the vette filter/regulator isn't that great. It's pretty common for their customers to eliminate the stock vetter FPR due to fuel pressure loss. In higher HP applications it can become an issue, but I think with my whooping 350whp range, I'll be ok.

My understanding is itsgood up to about 500rwhp after that it cant keep up..... My goal is 425-450rwhp so if i start having issues illdeal with it but other side of that is the fuel is going through 2 filters now, unless you eliminate the factory one which id rather just have both there anyway, theoretcially should never have to replace the vette filter!!!
