Help fitting flex fuel sensor to the fuel return line
At the moment, I am trying to figure out the easiest way to install my GM 13577429 flex fuel sensor to my fuel return line. As I understand it, the fuel return line is 1/4" and the hard lines on the sensor are 3/8". What is the easiest way to do this? I know that I could replace all of the 1/4" hose from the FPR through to the hard line with 8 fittings/adapters and 6AN line, but surely that is a bit excessive?
Is there something similar to that exists? This particular product is for nylon hoses though.
Alternatively, a couple of 3/8 female to 6AN male adapters and couple of 6AN female to 1/4 male adapters similar to would work to adapt the flex fuel sensor size to hose size, but I just cannot find 1/4".
Cheers for any help!

You have the exact same problem I had. To see how I solved it, please check my thread. I chose to completely eliminate the stock return part of the rail. I think it was a cleaner solution.

Wow, thanks guys, looks like problem solved. I'll go with 2006EvoIXer's solution first.
The next step of actually installing everything and tuning may be some time yet!
I'm in CA at the moment for work, so thought I'd pick up odds and ends that I still need while I'm in the US.
