does ANYONE know where I can get a banjo fitting for the inlet of a
Carter AFB that has an inverted flare (5/16" or 3/8") rather than a 3/8"
hose barb? Trying to neaten up my underhood, but there seem to be only
two options, either to buy the really expensive line from Russell with
AN fittings, or else use the hose barb.

thanks...

That's the hose barb fitting...

I guess I needed an excuse to buy an AN flare tool, right? (like I
need more tools)

Nate, I have bought what you are looking for from Jeg's before; IIRC it
wasn't listed in their catalog but I "rooted around" on Edelbrock's
site, came up with a number, and got it from Jeg's. IIRC, the
carburetor fittings on the Edelbrock website aren't where you would
think they should be, ya have to dig around.

I think Jeff told me it was a "marine" part, but I couldn't find it...
have to look again.

Well, I know when I installed the Edelbrock carb on my GT, I was able
to get an inverted flare style inlet fitting right off the shelf at
the speed shop where I bought the carb.
