holy crap it is impossible to get the AN fittings together. I gave up after about 2 hours. I need to find somewhere local to make them for me or I need to find another type of fitting. this is the last piece i need to start my motor and I can not get them together!
Damn you made it seem so easy in your post!!!!

 

It is easy. Which fitting are you have a problem with???

 

This is what i have to put together. I tried again last night and the freaking hose keeps pushing out. I just went to the local speed shop and bought some push lock ones. This is the last piece I need to start my motor and did not want to deal with it anymore, what is another $30 at this point...

It goes from the crossover in the middle to the thermo housing

 

I don't see how you couldn't get the fittings to go together unless you has a fitting that was too big for the hose you were using.
