Dipshit Fuel Line Question

halfafish said

I had the same situation, going with a carb on the 69 Dart and I wanted a vapor return line. I got the pre-bent 5/16" line from In Line Tube (great folks, BTW). There were way too many intricate bends for me to feel like messing with making my own, and the price was quite reasonable. I got a roll of 1/4" for the return line and bent that to roughly match the supply line. I drilled a hole in the t-bar crossmember to pass it through, and then just zip tied the return line to the supply line.

I still have the old factory supply line if you want it to see if it is the same as your 64.

I made the fuel lines for the 68 Barracuda from annealed stainless from Summitt. I have MPFI so it has a 3/8 delivery and return lines. I also drilled an extra hole at the torsion bar mount so both lines run through that mount. I made a separate section about a foot long where they pass through the TB mount with AN fittings on each end, that way if I ever need to do any service in that area I will not need to remove the entire fuel line.
The fuel lines I made are much straighter than the OE version. I have subframe connectors and the deliver and return lines are mounted to the frame ends and subframe connectors. At the rear axel there is a sweeping bend up that follows the rear frame section to just above the rear axel. From that to connect to the fuel tank I used stainless wrapped flex line, with the Teflon inner liner to make it ethanol comparable. All with AN fittings. The front section is similar. The last couple of feet with several bends is all stainless flex hose Teflon lined. Using flex hose at each end minimized the number of intricate bends that I had to make using the stainless tubing.
