Sorry to hear about the engine, glad you're sticking with it though. As for the fittings, either one will be just fine, they both work for high pressure applications and fuel pressure isn't very high anyway.

Looking forward to more updates.

Abandon ship!

Picked up the new shortblock from the machine shop. Then I got an offer, and so I sold the car.

And then I bought a GMC Syclone. No more evo.

My Curt Brown intake showed up today with the s90 throttle body too. Man for a "stock" intake it sure looks good.
