#8 to 1in -20 Carb Adapt Fitting Red

The Russell #8 to 1in -20 Carb Adapt Fitting Red is a straight carburetor inlet adapter designed to connect #8 AN male fittings to 1-20 inch male threads, making it essential for fuel system transitions on classic muscle cars and street rod builds. Constructed from anodized aluminum, this red-anodized fitting delivers both durability and corrosion resistance in underhood environments where fuel and moisture exposure is constant. The straight configuration eliminates unnecessary bends in fuel lines, reducing turbulence and maintaining consistent fuel delivery to carburetors like Quadrajet installations.

Builders rely on AN fittings for their precision engineering and leak-free performance under pressure. The #8 AN male end accepts standard braided stainless steel fuel lines, while the 1-20 inch male thread matches the inlet port on many vintage carburetors and fuel regulators. Red anodizing provides both a clean aesthetic appearance and a protective oxide layer that resists oxidation. At 0.07 lbs, the compact footprint fits within tight engine bay layouts common in restorations and performance upgrades.

This adapter is ideal for builders transitioning from modern fuel delivery systems to classic carbureted setups, or for anyone restoring vehicles with original Quadrajet carburetors that require modern AN-compatible fuel lines. Whether you're converting to a high-flow fuel pump with braided line or rebuilding an original fuel system with contemporary components, this straight fitting eliminates guesswork in port matching and ensures proper thread engagement without forcing connections.

The Russell brand has long been recognized in the fuel system and cooling industry for precision brass and aluminum fittings. Individual fittings allow you to customize your fuel system configuration without purchasing complete kits, reducing waste and cost on targeted upgrades.
