I just bought an Aeromotive fuel reg (AN-06 O-Ring Boss ORB port type) and I'd like to know If I have to buy the actual fitting made by Aeromotive or can I go to a Homedepot and use thier fittings and put some liquid teflon? I'm planning using hose barb flares to connect to the standard fuel line size.

i know it's more money but why not buy the whole Driftmotion kit?

Would be a damn sight safer, not slapping the OP too hard but he obviously doesn't understand how the sealing works and has the common misconception about how "Teflon" works ;)

haha, i'd have to agree. it's way safer, why got cheap especially when there could be potential fuel leaks. it's one those things you get what you pay for.

the kit will take the guess work out and make the set up even cleaner. if the regulator doesn't need to go in right now, i'd wait till you have the appropriate items to complete the job. i'll be kicking your own ass if you spring a leak.
