Although some of the factory ones on small block V8s used a longer connector since it fits in close behind the rear edge of the intake manifold.
I want to install one of those stainless braided lines from the engine to the factory gauge. The engine is 1/8th NPT I believe and I already have the adapter to AN on that end.

At the gauge I need something that adapts from the compression sleeve nut female fitting on the back of the gauge and convert to 4 AN or is it -4 AN?

Would you know of such an adapter?
