Fuel fitting size help needed

[rog_allen]

I was wondering if anyone could tell what size fitting i need to add on to this fuel line by looking at it ?
I emailed the ebay guy i bought it from last july and all he could tell me is he used dash 6 or 8 . On all the carbs he built
thanks

If that horizontal line nut uses an 11/16th wrench, it's a -6.

hi rev
i just tried an 11/16" wrench and it was way small but the 7/8" wrench fit it nice ..
Do you think its for sure a AN-8 fitting then ??
Thanks

Mine like that is an -8 fitting. I threaded a filter log directly to that point, and then the stainless braided supply line onto the filter inlet.

i wish they would stamp the number on them so a guy could tell easyer..i hate to order the wrong one.. They are a little spendy..
I want to just hook up to regular 3/8 fuel line and an inline filter then down to my pump
does yours take a 7/8 inch wrench by chance ?

Ok guess we will order a #8 thanks everyone

Sorry, I am slow on the uptake. Yeah 7/8 would be for a -8 line. Been awhile and I have a set of AN wrenches that are marked with the - size, so I have to stop and think about it. FYI, AN sizes are in a 16th fractional size. Meaning a -6 is 6/16 or 3/8. -8 would be 8/16, or 1/2. I know, it's line size and not really related to the size wrench, just thought you might like to know, if you didn't already.

I used to use the Mallory 110 to feed 850s on 502 Chevy crate motors. You should be fine.
