Please Help! 87 chevy TBI fuel line question
I am wanting to go with Braided Gas Flex Line from the Throttle Body to the frame and I am not sure about the fittings I will need to connect with.

I am going to follow this one, this is something I am kind of kicking around since I need to replace these anyway.

Re: Please Help! 87 chevy TBI fuel line question
Thanks (875.3CHEVY) for the info could you tell me are the fittings you listed above made to connect with the steel braided flex line If so what ends do I need to connect to the
555-103105K you listed? I have pics of mine below. I put an edelbrock performer tbi intake on my new engine and so I had to bend the stock lines to make them fit but I soon found out that know I cant even get to the distributer bolt nor get vac assist for the trans to fit right so I just want to do flex lines from the frame showed in the picture to the throttle body. Pic's of my build: http://s1210.photobucket.com/albums/...exasbigbear21/

Re: Please Help! 87 chevy TBI fuel line question
i think they screw directly in the tbi but they might be the same as them hose ends.ive got new line from the fuel pump to the motor,but i got a 5.3.see if you can screw the ends of the flex into it self and that will tell you if the end of the hose is the same as the tbi.if so them fittings will work.or just compare the male threads on the flexline with male threads on the fuel line.should be o-ring
