I have a 99 Suburban that came with the 5.7 Vortec motor. I have Ls swapped it and initially used adapter fittings to mount my Fuel pressure regulator on my firewall behind my intake. The regulator I bought was not sufficient to hold back the pressure for my pump so I need to replace it, I want to move it down to the frame rail now since its such a PITA to get to. My thought is to come off my fuel filter and adapt it to the fuel pressure regulator but can't seem to find an adapter fitting that will go from the 16x1.5 o-ring to an AN. I have the adapter that goes from the male o-ring to an AN but cant find the Male O-ring fitting to AN line. Also I could get one of the dorman fuel line repair kits ( https://www.amazon.com/Dorman-800-1...sr_1_1?keywords=800-153&qid=1575740538&sr=8-1 ) and flare the open end to an Inverted flare. Or not sure if one of these adapters with the crush washers would actually seal. ( https://www.holley.com/products/plu...ters/metric_male_to_an_flare/parts/9919DFJERL ) Also open to other ideas for how to mount the regulator to make it easier.

Thanks in advance
