AN Fittings and adapters For 3.2 manifold

I know that there have been a few fellas that have converted their fuel supply and return lines on the 3.2 intake manifold when converting to EFI. The question I have is what fittings and adapters did you use. Did you use the 3.2 fuel rails or did you use aftermarket rails?
I have looked at the aeroquip site and only see metric pipe to AN adapters. If one of you fine gentlemen that have done this could show some pictures and give a list of the fittings required to do this it would be much appreciated an I am sure would be very helpful to others as well.

Look at Capt Carrera's picture. He spells it out perfectly.

Thanks for the link. Now I am even more confused than when I started. If I read Steely's link which is related to the 3.2 intake I see a reference to M14x1.5 metric to AN6 adapters. Now if I go to Coles thread which is related to CIS I see reference to M14x1.5 to AN6 adapters which jives with Steely's link. Cole also does and excellent job of listing all the fittings as related to CIS and I took that the return line size was M12x1.5 to AN6. Now when I go to your link Capt Carrera's drawing shows M16x1.5 to AN6 adapters for the main fuel lines. I do know that the return line fitting on my car at the firewall is one size smaller than the fuel filter outlet and that the fuel filter outlet is the exact same size as the fittngs on the fuel rails. Now the question is WHAT ARE THE SIZES? Are they M14 or M16 or?

This the very reason I started this thread. I thought that if the people whom converted earlier 911's to EFI using the 3.2 intake and used AN lines for the fuel system would give a list of the fittings that they used all this information would be in one place and be sort of a reference for others in the future. I seems that we have threads for other things that list all the necessary parts and proceedures required to do the change or to perform the task but this area seems always scattered around and in the dark.

I guess an easier question is what are the fuel rail fitting sizes on a 3.2 manifold and what is the return line fitting size on an 83 cab? The rest is easy to figure out.
