Does anyone have a source for the outlet fitting for the pressure line on the back of the pump? I’ve checked online and can find some listed, but can’t seem to verify they’d match what was on my ‘87 El Camino. Doing an ls swap and I didn’t think to remove the part before giving the engine away. TIA
 
I had worked at one time for one of the aftermarket brake and fuel line reproduction companies.
Believe it or not the pressure line on most sets I produced had a 45 degree double inverted flare with a 5/8-18 tube nut to thread in the back of the Saginaw pump.
Napa shows the fitting with a 90 degree bend 3/8 tube and the 5/8-18 fitting as does Advance. You might also check with Inline Tube (Not who I worked for) and see if they sell the flared tube with the fitting alone as well as Borgeson.

That's for sharing this, but I'm actually looking for the fitting with a female side that screws into the back of the pump.

What pressure or return hose are you using then? Something OEM?

If you are making a new hose with JIC or AN end that the adapter you need.

You can buy new Edelman tube ends but they aren't rated for high pressure and are good for the return side only as they don't have a crimp end.

Thanks for this info, I’ll look into it further.

I’m running a factory line which is why I was looking for the factory fitting.
The metric O ring fitting is GM part number 26009894.
Awesome, thank you.
