Jegs sells their full line of fuel line components cheap. I'd use their compression style fitting... no flaring needed.

The ones I used adapt the hard line to an AN fitting. Just screw the AN right on.

Me too. The ferral probably has to be used with mallable lines so it can pinch it to hang on to it. I have a 3/8 steel line on my X that I need to come off of with AN into my regulator. Can't stand looking at rubber hose and clamps, even though it works

you can use compression fittings on steel lines with no problem. 
You're right!! What the hell am I thinking about. I've only used them 100 times on steel trans lines and such. Brain cramp!!

I've heard of people heating it up first with a torch so it doesn't come out messed up near the seam, if it has one
if your dreaming of your car then it's your dream car....
