Don Gordon,

I ordered an AN tee that was -6 on two ends and -3 in the middle in AN steel
from wicks aircraft supply for my 320. it was a special order and took 2
weeks to get in, but worked perfectly. I think it was ~$5.

I've read that steel is the only material recommended on fuel fittings
directly going to, or connecting to the engine for vibration/fatigue
resistance. I know that AN aluminum is not recommended, as the movement of
the engine can eventually fatigue the fitting off.

[I need a way to tap into the fuel line between the mechanical fuel pump and
the carburetor so I can determine fuel pressure on a carburated L320
engine.  I'm looking for a fitting ( a Tee? ) that goes from a -6 size fuel
line hose to a -3 remote pressure sensor hose.  Any suggestions?]
