Summit Racing also sells 90° bulkhead connectors.

- -8 bulkhead fitting, 90deg Aeroquip Bulkhead Adapter Fittings FBM2794 $16.95
- -6 bulkhead fitting, 90deg Aeroquip Bulkhead Adapter Fittings FBM2793 $9.95

I believe the two above fittings are for AN hose ends on either side, not a fuel line connection, though.

the top is a typical 90 hose end (don't have hose in mine yet obviously)

then the female end is on the short end of this bulkhead adaptor:

then i got one of these for each connector, there was one hex nut on each that came off and the 2 nylon washers.. took that stuff, trashed the actual fitting. (like i said, i'm sure theres a more cost effective way)

then the bottom is this:

You can guaranteed get all these pieces from summit racing but if you're ordering online, i'm sure theres a much cheaper way around it.. each unit cost me over 70 bucks.. which is robbery.

Oh and i should add, if you're doing this, you might also consider getting some electrical bulkhead connectors like these ones that summit sells

to do a nice clean fuel pump wire. Just got mine today!
