Upgrade seawater mounted fuel pump help

Just curious if anyone has ever upgraded the seawater mounted fuel pump on a 575SCi motor.
I have the stock pump and bought the Kieth Eikert Billet pump which bolts right up to the arm/base. (see pic)

My question is this:
This pump has the A.N. –10 inlet and –8 outlet, I am pretty sure the std fittings on the Merc pump are different. What adapters do I need (see 2nd pic) to go from the -8 outlet to what Merc uses?

The inlet side is not a problem - yet.

Thanks in advance.

Are you using the small Merc. hard line? You might want to use stainless steel braided line.
