I have a 70 Lemans. I want to upgrade the fuel line to 1/2in. Does anyone make a 1/2in. pick-up that fits into a stock gas tank?

Max, I also have 70 LeMans. Going to 1/2 seams pointless because there is still 8inches of 3/8 pickup tube in the tank.You can pull only as much gas as a 3/8 tube will allow. The pickup tube is connected to the main fuel line, which is also 3/8, by a rubber gas line.The stock fuel pump also takes a 3/8 line. Are you building a faster motor that requires more fuel?A good working stock fuel pump will supply you with plenty of gas.

I have a 72 Lemans and installed a sump in the stock fuel tank and as electric fuel pump and use 1/2" line all the way to the fuel pressure reg. It works great!

Thanks everyone for your input. I ended up drilling out the 3/8 line out of the stock and welding in a 1/2in. line.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
