Reall not sure what your looking for there. Are you saying you want to mate a tubing flare to an-6? I doubt it's 1/2" tubing (Tubing is measured OD) more likekly 5/16" or 3/8"


Here's a link to Slummits list of Earls Inverted flare to AN- fittings

Are you wanting to go from a 3/8" inverted flare to a -6 male?

Re: 3/8 fuel line fitting to -6 AN ?

low pressure lines can use a hard-tube to AN adapter, or you can buy a JIC 37* flare tool and actually just flare one on. They make 1/2" to 3/8" reducer fuel fittings, and then they make 3/8 NPT to -6AN adapter fittings.

You may not find a "one-fitting" solution, unless you flare it yourself or use the hard tube adapter. The problem with AN conversion fittings is that odd-size stuff has a 2-3x higher price than commonly used ones.

You will have to find a hydraulic or fitting shop , but they are out their . I have a good hydraulic shop in town ( he also drag races ) For my 69 Camaro I have small amount of rubber hose to the pump and an inverted flair male to -6 in the pump and -6 with 2-90 's on each end going to the carb
