Default Edelbrock Fuel line

I'd like to replace the current steel and rubber fuel line with a solid line. I have an
Edelbrock Performer 1406 600cfm carb.
What i would like to do is to add Edelbrock chrome hard line with filter. (8131)
Then a 3/8 hard line to the pump.
There's a thread from 2011 where eastitd and Pau L provided pics of exactly what i would like to do.
What I need is any info on the brass connector shown in their pictures.
A fitting that's -6 AN to the male end of the Edelbrock filter and the other end fits onto the flared end of
the 3/8ths steel line. Any help would be appreciated.

They make a -6 to single flare fitting......hop on Summit and see if you can find it becasue I can't! You slide it over the fuel line and single flare it.......maybe somebody will pop in with a part number.

Thanks for your reply. What about using a compression fitting instead of a flared fitting?
For those of us that can't get access to the necessary tools.
Summit has AN to tube adapter fittings such as SUM - 2200075B. Now I certainly wouldn't use a compression fitting on brake lines.
What do you think for attaching a 3/8 line to the end of an Edelbrock polished fuel filter?
