Tim972 Posted March 24, 2021 Posted March 24, 2021 Does anyone have a correct part number for the prebent fuel line from the pump to carb? 402 bbc, 2 line short fuel pump, quadrajet and long water pump if it matters for routing. Lots of choices online, some specify long fuel pump, quite a few do not say either way. Just want to make sure I get the correct one ordered. Thanks 👍 Quote
Dtret Posted March 25, 2021 Posted March 25, 2021 I’m on my 4th one. None look right. But since I don’t have a engine yet,I cannot be sure. But I will let you know which one actually works when I get my engine back from the shop. I might be 6 ft in the ground by then. 😆 Quote

rotinrob Posted March 25, 2021 Posted March 25, 2021 My 70 Assembly Manual shows the pipe assemble as 3975944 and the fuel pump as 6440768 (Delco #40768) The illustration is of a long pump but the illustration can be wrong in the AM. My 71 AM shows the pipe as 3986193 and the fuel pump as 6440868 with the illustration showing the long pump. Check with Classic Muscle they usually list parts by the GM number and they show the 3975944 for $23.00 in stainless steel but not the 3986193 (listed as CPC7101(s)). Also says with long pump I believe the 6440768 is in the clocking on the fuel pump. Haven't found the GM service part numbers. Please note that I have never bought a line set that screwed right together. I think I bought 3 for my 70 L78 Camaro to get 1 decent fitting set of lines. rotin Quote
Tim972 Posted April 1, 2021 Author Posted April 1, 2021 I decided to switch back to the correct long fuel pump. I ordered a stainless line from Inline Tube. I had to tweak it a little, but I’m assuming it was because of my aluminum intake height. I’m happy with the fit. Quote
Mikstudie Posted April 2, 2021 Posted April 2, 2021 Inline tube, this place is awesome. https://www.inlinetube.com/?gclid=CjwKCAjwgZuDBhBTEiwAXNofRGX6cP7hXZKi_EdIai6dcFa-SJVr5qvtA-UII5z0LCmvKRI1937VgxoCH4IQAvD_BwE Quote
Dtret Posted April 2, 2021 Posted April 2, 2021 Watch them. Sometimes the parts are not oe looking. But I did use them a lot Quote
1970mcss Posted April 2, 2021 Posted April 2, 2021 I bought a fuel line from inline and it wasn't close. They didn't want to refund me but finally did. I bought one from the parts place and it was a perfect fit 1 Quote

Tim972 Posted April 2, 2021 Author Posted April 2, 2021 I’ve gotten all my lines from Inline Tube, brake, fuel and trans too. I’ll be installing them soon, so we’ll see how they fit. I’ve ordered quite a few things from The Parts Place too. I’m detailing the engine on the stand and starting to install the front accessories. The PS bracket I got from them is way wrong, it appears to not be bent incorrectly. I ordered a new one from Ausley’s, hopefully that one fits better. Quote
Dtret Posted April 3, 2021 Posted April 3, 2021 See I never have return issues because I just don’t order incorrect parts. LOL. I couldn’t resist. Quote
