Tpi fuel line
Just wondering where to get a fuel line for my 1987 IROC-Z 350tpi. Dealer dosn't carry it, no local parts stores carry it(though NAPA tried to make me one out of hydrolic fittings, didn't work), and no junkyards have any cars like mine or can find one. I'm up the creek, my cars bin parked for 1.5 weeks now. How about some of that stainless line and AN style fittings? Anyone know how to decipher the -6 -8 -10 stuff?
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :hail:

Which lines are you talking about? From the tank to the driver's side engine compartment, the metal ones from the intake to the driver's sides engine compartment, or the rubber ones that run between the two? I have an extra set of the metal ones from the front of the intake to the rubber ones.

just an FYI, the -6, -8, -10 stuff is the diameter of the line in 16th's of an inch (ie: -6 = 3/8" ; -8 = 1/2" ;etc.) If it's hose they reference the ID, if it's tubing they reference the OD.

If you mean the rubber lines that go from the drivers side frame rail to the front of the fuel rail, I have a set (used) laying on my bench right now. CHEAP

It's one of the rubber lines between the metal lines, about 11 inches long. I'm thinking of trying the AN stuff, theres a local raceshop the carry's that stuff.

you can get fittings to adapt the rail and body lines to -6an.
Jegs sells them but they don't have the larger one for the body line in stock. I need to get a pair so I can install my Stealth Ram.

Maybe this thread will help. It has some part numbers for aftermarket fittings and adapters.
