Bob,
You can find the M10x1.0 to AN-6 adapter at anplumbing.com part number
991953. It's designated as "Carburetor Adapter Weber". Be sure to get the
M10x1.0 not M10x1.25 or any other pitch. As for the 90 deg swivel, it is a
hose
end fitting allowing you to mate your fuel hose to the AN fitting. What you
need to buy would depend on the type of hose that you are planning to use. We
prefer the "push on" kind. No clamps, no braids to deal with. You can get
them at the same website or at summitracing.com
One other note. We are not sure if the adapter/hose end fitting stack-up
would clear the airbox pressure solenoid assembly since the 90 deg fitting has
a radius to it. If there is enough room in your installation for hose bend,
you may not need to use the 90 deg fitting. You also have the option of
using a 45 deg fitting.

Tam,
For those unfamiliar with the issue, I am trying to replace the hose barb
banjo fittings on the fuel pressure regulator with a proper AN fitting. The
results of my comparison of the AN-4 Banjo fitting to the existing Banho Hose
Barb are posted on my build site ( _http://www.europaowners.org/N914XL/_
(http://www.europaowners.org/N914XL/) ) last album. They are not
encouraging.
Tam has another idea.

If the AN-4 banjos will not work for you, I just thought of another
possibility. Perhaps you can replace the banjos with straight M10 to AN-6
adapters and attach the fuel lines with 90 degrees AN-6 swivel fittings.
OK, sounds good. The AN-6 sure will supply the fuel. But I'm not familiar
with the M10 to AN-6 fitting. Do you have a source for them? Do I go back
to the Race Supply Shop?
I assume that the AN-6 90 degree swivel fitting is on the hose end?
Good building and great flying,
