i know you wouldn't buy from the UK but the web site of a company  
called speedflow is great for looking at what's available. they are  
essentially racecar fittings but appear to be identical to the  
aircraft AN series. We have used them for both alu lines and SS  
braided. Web address   is   www.speedflow.co.uk   Even the part  
numbers seem the same as AN series No doubt you could find a similar  
supplier in the US if ACS can't oblige
