Help - Fuel Pipe connectors

[ugg10]

Knowing the kit car community is a very resourceful lot I hope someone can help as I cannot seem to find anyone that stocks what I need to finish off the fuel pipes on my car.

I am looking for a 3 way, 8mm OD (ID of pipe) barbed (or possibly plane) connector, brass or nylon, for 8mm flexible fuel pipe. The problem I have is that ideally I would want the three pipes all at right angles with each other i.e. they make the corner of a cube. There are plenty of T and Y connectors in one plane i.e. flat, but can't find one that has all three pipes in separate planes.

All help gratefully received, and many thanks in advance.

you can get brass 4 way connectors that, if you blanked off one port, would be exactly what you're after.

Thanks for the quick reply, do you have a link to one as the only 4 way I can find are flat crosses, I need one where one tapping comes out perpendiculer to the others.

Unfortunately I could not find anything suitable. After about 5 attempts I have now managed to manufacture something in bent ally pipe (without it kinking or squashing too much). So problem solved.
