Zombie. Im guessing the -6an and -8an is confusing you. -6 is about the size of 3/8" line -8 is about 1/2"

Your cell has -8 fittings in the sump. You'll want to get a -8 to -6 fitting. run -6 to your filter and pump then run the 3/8 aluminum line to the carb.
Check out the kits that summit sells. They come with a bunch of fittings.

From the looks of that kit you'll also need the fuel cell to filter kit # SUM-TANKKIT1 also. Most fuel cells have -8 fittings coming out of them. If you have enough -6 braided line in the main kit you could use a -8 straight swivel coupler ( Russells # 640010) and -8 to -6 reducer (Russells #661770) instead of the fuel cell to filter kit. Do we have you totally confused now :scratch:

Adam posted while I was still typing mine so I didn't see what he said, but yeah what he said If you were going -8 and 1/2" line I have alot of extras. My fuel system changed before I could install any of it. My new system is -10 and 5/8" aluminum line so most of the -8 and 1/2" stuff I got I'm not going to use. Out of over $400 worth of fittings and other stuff I'm only going to use 4 -8 straight hose ends to go from the regulator to the carb. You could also check out hppt://www.russellperformance.com for more info on braided lines and stuff.
