Mechanical Pump to Carb Fuel Line Replacement
I have a 72 camaro 350 block with the 84 firebird heads, upper intake, and quadrajet. I have a mechanical fuel pump and need to change my metal fuel line from the pump to the carb and was trying to figure out which one to use, the 72 camaro line or try to find an 84 firebird line. Any ideas?
It was looking like my easiest route is to just use a stainless steel braided line and put the quadrajet fitting on it. Anyone know what fitting I would need for the fuel pump side?

Now, I have seen the factory steel line set up that goes from the mechanical pump to the carb for sale online. Can't remember where though, but I do know they can be had. I'd start with Classic Industries and go from there.

Re: Mechanical Pump to Carb Fuel Line Replacement
they say they have one for an 84-86 305 4bll camaro/z28. This should work fine I'm guessing since I have an 84 firebird originally a 305?
