All good comments. I will add some rubber at any point near the frame - I already did this between the tank and fuel filter.

On Rick's point that there already are a lot of connections and I should be careful near the brakes - yes, I agree. This is why I located the filter in-line instead of behind the rear driver's side wheel, as many guys do.

So what I have is shown in post #11, and it is: Tank out (-10 AN male) > -10 AN female/-8 AN male adapter > -8 AN female to -8 AN female 90 deg adapter > filter assembly (filter plus a NPT O-ring to AN fitting on either end) > -8 AN female to -8 AN female PTFE hose > coupler > hard line. I drew out several alternatives, and this appeared to be the strongest and simplest arrangement. So many of the hose ends that I would've wanted (e.g., NPT male with an O-ring, -8 AN male) were not available with a single hose/fitting manufacturer, and in the right finish, that this was the best I could think of. If it leaks beyond snugging the joints, then I'll consider other options. Any other suggestions on the best way to get from the tank (-10 AN male) to the hard line (- 8 AN female) with an in-line filter would be appreciated.
