RE:Headers and Fuel lines

Subject: RE:Headers and Fuel lines

I posted in your other thread about the sleeves and -6an nuts. If you are coming from the fuel filter or some other place that you have existing factory fittings then by all means buy the correct adapter to go from the factory fitting to a -6an fitting to hook to your steel braided line or whatever and call it a day. I believe the factory fittings are called saginaw fittings, but don't quote me on that. If you are coming from a bare 3/8" line then you can do what I did and use the sleeves and -6 nuts and flare the end of the steel line. My factory lines were fine to the front and have about 1" or more clearance to my Hooker headers so I left them alone. My lines were damaged (kinked some) at the top before they went into the stock fuel rail so I cut the lines off where they were good (about 2" before the fuel rail fitting), which is why I had no stock fittings to hook into.
