I'm having a little trouble finding a vendor with a Male AN-6 to 1/4" hose barb. Summit doesn't seem to have one.
This is for connection between the rubber fuel line in the wing to SS braided in the cockpit.

I just saw an add in Grassroots Motorsports for "Affordable -AN Hose Fittings". I have no idea what the company is like to deal with, but they advertise both hose barb and threaded AN fittings in sizes from AN-6 to AN-20.
The web site is: www.batinc.net/mocal.htm.

Try fluidsystemsengineering.com. You may have to go barb to pipe and
pipe to AN.

You may have to use three fittings to make that transition. Or you
could either use the braided hose all the way to the fuel tank or the
rubber hose all the way to the fuel valve or gascolator and then come
out of that with braided.

I think you guys are right -6 to 1/4" doesn't seem to be available anywhere. There is a -6 to 7mm one at Summit and 7mm = 0.27559".
Anyone have and opinion if the fuel line that Zenith provides can stretch that 0.025"? Else it will be some combination of fittings or rubber in the cockpit.

How about running braided stainless all the way back to the tanks? That's what I retrofitted on mine. I cut an access panel on the bottom of each wing, pulled out the rubber hose and ran SS braid to an AN fitting at the tank. I put in a fitting to make it easier to remove the wings later.
