Problem is I do not even know what type of AN fitting that would be to connect to the end of the pipe. I do know they exist and had assumed it was a compression fitting, but searching on that is not working out.

Does anyone know where I would begin searching for such an AN fitting?

I use a Stainless Steel Braided line with Chrome Clamp Covers.

You can get them at this link (down toward the bottom)- HERE



Here are a couple of pics...instead of the hose clamp look at the end of the line you can see the Chrome Covered Clamp.





In this pic you can see the braided hose on my bike, I have it routed to a filter below the bike, but it could just as easily be routed to a catch can.

This is what I came up with after being unable to find any system that would work with a SE stage one backplate, I went with dual hoses parallel to bottom of rocker box covers then down to hidden catch can in cowbell. Marine shrink wrap over fittings tapped into backplate really cleaned it up.

Smokey that is the slickest set-up I've seen. I've never seen shrinkwrap tubing behave like that (90 deg turn). Very well thought out system. Are you getting a milky goo in the catch can?
