Here is the spec's straight from the manufacure's web site for the Earl's fitting:

It is rated for 250 psi.

In my opinion the LS fuel system is not really high pressure. It only runs at about 58 psi. Yes, that is higher than carbed fuel systems, but many other systems operate a much higher pressures than that and use the AN/tube adapters.
