Autometer Fuel Pressure Gauge Help?

I bought an Autometer fuel pressure gauge #5412 (up to 100 psi) with the isolator #5282 but the isolator only comes with one hose end to connect to the gauge and nothing to go to the regulator.

I see they have braided hose kits but I have two questions about running this line;

1. Will the autometer hose kits handle 45 PSI?

2. The isolator end is male -4AN end and the regulator has a 3/8 NPT female. How do I get the ends to work?

I thought about using HP 3/8" rubber fuel line between the isolator and regulator and have a 3/8 NPT to 3/8" barb fitting for the reg side but cannot find a -4AN female to 3/8" barb fitting... or any kind of -4AN female fitting really for the isolator.

Any ideas?

I finally figured this puzzle out!

Reg side: 3/8 NPT male to 1/4 NPT Reducer male --> 1/4 NPT female to 3/8 hose end --> 3/8 rubber line

Isolator side: -4AN female to 1/4 NPT male --> 1/4 NPT female to 1/4 NPT female coupler --> 1/4 NPT female to 3/8 hose end ---> 3/8 rubber fuel line


I just want to say this hurt my head to try to figure out but I sure know a lot more about fittings.
