Where is the best place to tap into fuel lines for a nitrous kit. Any help would great. And if you have pics that would help to? And what would I need for it that's not in the nitrous kit? Regulator, ect? Thanks.

Use a -4AN 90-deg swivel fitting, like the NOS 17535. That allows you to orient the S/S hose connection pointing to the side, rather than up at the cowl. The "swivel" feature allows you to tighten it moderately, assuring the connection is pointed in the correct direction. The Schrader valve appears to be simply swaged onto the hard line, and as noted above, very easy to break it off.

To run more than one device off the Schrader connection (Hobbs switch, pressure gauge, pressure sensor, etc) get a -4AN on one end of the S/S hose, and a 1/8" NPT male on the other. Get a brass tee with 1/8" NPT threads, and you have two connections, rather than one. There are also distribution blocks available for 3 or more connections.
