Not hydraulics, fuel injection. Most of the fittings you find for this kind of application are sized in the "AN" system and use 37 degree flares on the tubing connections. Supposedly this kind of flare will take higher pressure than a regular 45 degree flare (there is also a special backing "sleeve" used between the flare and the nut). I wish there was a decent "custom" shop around here that stocked this kind of stuff -- I'd rather pick everything myself from bins than order over the internet. Maybe in Indianapolis....
