To connect the line to the hardline coming from the firewall you mean?

Well i called perrin just now any they say its the same fitting as subaru so they have 1 in stock. I got them to ship that out. Ill post a picture so you see what fitting is missing. I also bought a universal fuel line to go with the perrin fuel rail so im not really sure why they cant install it. Hopefully thiz perrin fitting will work. Has anyone run a perrin fuel rail with just the factory fuel line or do i forsure have to upgrade the line?

The Perrin rail is 3/8NPT. Run a -6 AN line with a 3/8NPT union to the rail, then you can run the fuel line clips like Brian posted to connect to your stock hardline, OR you can do what I did and flare the fuel line and use a compression fitting. I prefer the compression fitting because it is much more resistant to leaks, however the clip on style are easier to remove should you ever need to pull the rail.

Also, you get a LOT of stuff shipped when you don't need to, and as we know Canada sucks to have stuff shipped to. Mopac has ALL the fittings you need, and you can pick them up today as well instead of waiting for the mail to arrive. I've seen this with a couple more items in your build. Not being critical, but the old sayaing "patience bears more fruit than hastiness" applies here. Just trying to share tips that will make your build come together quicker and cost you a lot less.

Ya i see what ur saying. I have been patient though lol this build has gone on for a really long time. The only reason i dident go to mopac is because i just orderd a bunch of parts from crossover and thought i would have everything i need. I even orderd the fuel rail install kit from crossover and specified for a perrin fiel rail so im not sure why it wont hook up.

I just did tell you how to properly install it. Pick either a compression fitting or a quick connect like Brian used. Both are available at Mopac. Use -6AN fuel lines and plumb it up.
