Based on  your earlier comments, I think you're right that this isn't   
something wrong in the installation.  You can go about this a  couple  
of ways:

- Do the AN fittings and braided line,  the Corvair carbs use a  
standard (big) inlet fitting you can get  replacements for.  I'd  
attach to the carbs with 90 degree tube  style fittings.  Check with a  
racing supplier for the hose and  fittings.
- You could also replace with stock for new cars fuel  injection  
hose, and have it crimped on the ends of the stock lines  as was  
suggested.  If you want something that looks kind of  factory, this  
might be pretty nice.

In any case, please let  us know if this solves the problem.

If you want to use AN hose on the H-series, the easiest way is to replace  
the big nuts in the Rochesters (at the big 7/8" x 20 thread) with Holley  P/N 
26-27, that Holley part has a inlet thread of 1/2-20. Earls sells a  banjo 
fitting for -6 hose into that fitting inlet thread. It is Earls P/N  807695ERL. You 
can feed all four carbs from a one into four fuel log from  several sources. 
Speedway Motors P/N 550-6152 is their one-in, four-out log,  with 1/4 NPT 
threads.  Keep the hoses out of the linkage - AND AWAY  FROM YOUR PLUG WIRES!!!!
