Default '71 Radiator Support Vapor Line Clip

Does anyone know what type of clip is used to fasten the 5/16" tubing to bottom of the rad support? This comes from the tank to the charcoal canister.

Thanks,

Eddie

Here you go Eddie. Some crappy "during dis-assembly" photos of my Formula engine bay when we were getting ready to install the 455HO powertrain. Sorry for the filth . . .

My guess is that they are identical to a 5/16" GM fuel line to frame rail clamp.

I'm pretty sure this is the clip, although the tab will be folded over so it sits flush with the core support as shown in the picture Lloyd posted.

That clip tang actually goes through a slot on the plastic radiator fan shroud. I've seen quite a few broken shrouds because somebody removed the radiator without unbolting the vapor line clips.

Thanks a million guys. This is exactly what I needed. Thank all of you so much. I didn't even know you guys had answered my question. I'm not getting any notification from the forum now on anything I'm following. I did at first when Ames Performance merged with PY, but not now. I don't know what to do about it. Oh well, I appreciate all of you taking time to post pics of what you had. It sure help me understand.

Eddie
