I'm running a 396 in a 70' chevelle with stock intake (569) 750 Holley carb (New, not original) and a new stock fuel pump with return. I'm looking to buy the correct lines from the pump to the carb complete. So far, "The Right Stuff" doesn't seem to have the "right stuff" and Ground Up is supposed to call me back with the proper stuff but they said they were going to contact their supplier (The Right Stuff). I used "The RIght Stuff" before and have always been happy with their lines. What are you guys using for a supplier? My setup is all stock stuff so I didn't think it would be a big deal.

AFAIK, the only other companies that manufacturer the pre-bent lines are Inline Tube (Michigan) and Classic Tube (New York).

Not an endorsement but there is also Fine Lines (http://www.finelinesinc.com/).

I have used both The Right Stuff and Inline Tube on my current project. I used the latter to replace the former's 'stuff'. My observation from my first hand comparison on the parts I had is Inline Tube's lines were a better fit. They can fit your need. Give them a call on their tech support number at (586) 532-1338. www.inlinetube.com

I have a fresh 454 on the engine stand with a 569 intake and Holley 780 carb (newer not original) and I used the steel 3 piece line with the brass T from Ground Up. Motor isn't installed yet but I mocked everything up and it all fit fine.
