TBI Fuel Lines

Am wondering if anyone has found braided fuel lines that will work on stock TBI units? I searched the boards for info on this but came up empty (please forgive and direct if this has been covered). Also checked summit, but they have nothing in particular.

I have dealt with the stock TBI fuel lines in the past and they are really tough to install, but with the new manifold I am trying, they just will not work.

Any help is appreciated-

Hope all had a good holiday-

Are you thinking of AN lines? If so there are adaptors that fit the TBI fittings and feed lines to change from the Saginaw to -6 AN. Can then use -6 line and fittings.

There are also some Chevy pickups that come stock with braided steel flex line (like AN). I don't have much info on them though.

RBob-
Thanks for the info. My lack of vocabulary (Saginaw and AN) were likely limiting my searches. I will look for those adapters and that should take care of me.

Thanks much-
