Bob,

Metric to AN adapters are available from Raceing Beat or Mazdatrix to

fit AN-10 hose......Local hydraulic hose shops or suppliers carry metric

to JIC-37 degree (angle of flair) fittings also......JIC-37 is commercial

equivalent of AN........The problem I have had is finding a 16mm to -10

hose adapter.......They may have to be special ordered.........I do not

know if the racing shops have theirs special made or buy them off the

shelf........The 18mm to -10 adapter (used at rear hsd of 86-91 13B) is

easy to find at local shops as is 16mm and 18mm to -8 hose...FWIW
