Help! Would love to change rubber tubing/hose? banjo fitting to a fixture? Banjo or right angle? with AN -6 male adapter...Trying to set up a solid fuel line (Mostly). Fittings I see don't seem like they will work on these carbs. Nobody around here seems to know either. Need help from the experts...again...here.

Speedway Motors has a bunch of banjo fittings in a lot of different sizes.
If nothing's there that you like, try Summit Racing. Street Rod guys use them all over the place.
Here you go. Somebody makes this:

It was only a simple web search away.
looks great..... but too bad it is out of stock. another source????
Do a search. Like this
Thanks Gordon! Do you think AN3 is too small for Del 48" and 2.8 Type4 motor? It doesn't look like it would fit anyway. Guess I need to find somebody who actually has my carb and setup...my bought... but not working box is getting too full! What do you think of
Earl's Performance Single Banjo Hose Ends
Fitting, Carburetor Inlet, 12mm x 1.25 Banjo to -6 AN, Swivel Seal, Black Anodized,

AN-3 would be the size for a brake line. AN-6 would be a much better fit for a carburetor.
I don't own Dells but I believe they use a 12mm banjo bolt. If so, then this modern efi Honda part should work:

And yes AN6 is a great/correct size for aircooled carbureted flat fours.
Sooo..I guess the consensus is I require a banjo type? fitting with 12mm x 1.25 bolt and AN6 male or female type fitting. England has a sweet right angle gizmo for $40 but it seems banjo fittings are available in US for about half that. Thanks to the fans here...on to more adventures$$$$
Gary, before you buy them check the existing banjo bolt threads on your Dells.
That Earl's adapter has 1.25mm thread pitch, your Dellorto is probably 12mm x 1.5mm pitch. I believe there is also the same adapter but with the 1.5mm pitch banjo bolt, although I didn't see it in black.
I'm really not sure what threads you have, but you need to check.
Most European cars uses 1.5mm pitch, and most Japanese manufacturers use 1.25mm.
This is true in the motorcycle industry as well.
