fuel inj quick couplers

I've only ever found them at the dealer, but there are rumblings that they may be in the aftermarket somewhere.

I plan on just getting rid of the damn things one of these days in favour of -AN or JIC fittings - no orings, don't leak, more secure, and easier to work with...

I'm familiar with JIC fittings. The fuel injection system on my '90 XJ is pressurized, so I'll probably stick with the stock connector. First time any have sprung a leak on me.
 
Manufacturer, part number, and price, please! I'd like to be able to buy these damn things in bulk for the time being...

Meanwhile, I know that JIC and AN will both hold several thousand PSI - the smaller ones (say, -8 and down) are usually good for anywhere from 500-5000psi. I don't think it will be a problem with the piddly little 40psi we run in fuel - and you still won't have to worry about orings...

On my xj the male end is not removable I just used Fuel injection hose and a clamp.

I know about that (I've got four - 87, 88, and two 89's) and I'm working on designing an entire new part - so the fuel injectors can be better retained, and the whole thing can look cleaner. Gimme time...

Find yourself a Areoquip dealer the have all kind of special stuff.
 
Oh, I know - it's just the part itself that I'm working on now...

I've got access to Aeroquip, Earl's, Russell, and Parker-Hannifin - getting the fittings and such isn't a problem at all (although I usually use JIC stuff from Parker - I don't much care for all this aluminum alloy, and weight isn't a big issue for us...)
