Do you have pictures of the routing of the original line?
Did the repop you buy match the routing or deviate?
Who's line, and which one did you buy?
Thanks for humouring me  |
Jonny, We thought about using a 1971 fuel pump to carb line since the new fuel pump is the deep cannister 71-up style (only deep style we could get new). But we didn't like the incorrect straight fuel line from the T-stat to the fuel inlet, so we elected to use the repro 70 F-body 4-bbl line and had to bend the bottom connection to the fuel pump 45 degrees to fit into the more forward facing pump outlet. We had to use a tube bender to not kink the line and went slowly and test fitted quite a few times to get it to fit correctly. I'll try to get some pictures and post them soon.
