Geting ready to bend up a 3/8" fuel line between the fuel pump and carb on my 440 Challenger. I have a Holley carb and carter fuel pump. Does anyone have a pic of the correct line configuration? I know it snakes around the alternator somehow, and I'd like to come as close to stock-look as I can. Thanks in advance

doesn't it go from the pump up behind the alt next to the block and poke up by the dizzy? that's how i routed mine on my 69 road runner.

If you don't have any lines and don't mind aftermarket, get the fuel lines from Greg at Fabulous Fabrications. Dirt cheap and not worth the hassle to make them on my own!

I've had them on two cars now and the fit is absolutely perfect!

Here is an example:

Are you going to add a fuel filter near the stock location ??? Believe it or not the hardest piece to make is the short one that goes from the pump to the filter...It's bent pretty hard and you need a short radius bender to do it...The longer one that comes up behind the alt and around{in front} of the distributor is'nt too bad just alot of bending/fitting...And now for the ancient tubing benders secret handshake.. .Fill the line with sand and tape the ends before you bend it...It'll keep the line from collapsing while you put the tight bends in it...Just make sure you flush/clean it out well after the fun is over...

buddy of mine just bought a set, and I will say for what he paid you can't do it yourself at least and have it look and fit as good.
