'67 250 carb to pump fuel line routing
Hoping for help,
I am trying to find the correct routing of the fuel line on my engine. It is a 250 with stock Rochester B. The guy before me kind of pieced it together. Does anyone have any stock pics of how it was routed? Much appreciated, Paul |

Is it a metal or rubber line? If it were me and it were hacked up...I would order a new replacement. I think they are only about $20.

Thanks, I definitely want to fix it. I could make one fairly easily, was hoping to see a pic of how it's supposed to route though. I had to bend the carb side down when I put the correct air cleaner on it. Looking around I didn't see any 250 fuel lines for sale. I've only had this truck for about a month, so I'm not real sure about what stuff is available. Last edited by Norgermish; 02-02-2015 at 07:18 PM. Reason: add info |

Mine ('67 250) is all steel from the pump to the carb. It routes up to the valve cover and around the valve cover to the carb. It's not not here or else I'd take a picture.

Re: '67 250 carb to pump fuel line routing
That's what I thought it was supposed to be. This is a fairly new engine, looks like the PO must have broken the original line and just pieced it together with a couple pieces of rubber. It works but....

Re: '67 250 carb to pump fuel line routing
Inline Tube (www.inlinetube.com) sells pump to carb lines. $25 for stainless or $20 for OEM steel. Part #CTC6703. I don't have a 250 and can't vouch for these from experience. They show a different number for the 292s.

Earnhardt is right. My steel line comes from the pump then around behind the distributor, enroute to the carb it has a couple spliced in rubber fuel lines. Then coming out of the carb is a piece of 5/16 copper tubing with a flared end for one of the rubber hoses with clamp. I think I have an idea how to route it, maybe I'll give a shot at bending some 5/16 brake line. Would still like to see a pic with Rochester B. Thanks for the help |

Re: '67 250 carb to pump fuel line routing
Yeah, ditch the rubber hoses. If you intend to fabricate your own line check the local part house for some Ni-Copp (nickle copper) line. Amazingly simple to bend and flare.
