George,
I did very much the same thing with an Edelbrock #1406: a solid steel line. Perhaps because I read Lars' paper as well. The tubing is 3/8 brake line bent to the appropriate shape. The pic shows the 90* fitting at the pump. Tubing is single-flared at 37*. Fittings are -6AN (3/8") with #660661 tube sleeves and #660581 tube nuts.



In-line filter is Edelbrock with a banjo tube from the carb.

At the NAPA I work at we sell the Polyarmour brake line tubing. The people on the beach like it because of the rust resistance. We are in the ocean area and people here go through a LOT of brake line tubing.

The 3/16 inch bends very easily by hand. If you are careful you can make any curve you want in it. The larger diameter tubing is more difficult to bend and I highly recommend a tubing bender. I have the same model as Paul 67 referenced. It works great.

Actually this is the one that I have Paul. It is KD Tool Model #KDT2517. I have had it probably close to 30 years now. When I opened my Carquest Parts Store in 1978 it was included on the K-D Tool rack we had in the store. The picture actually shows a side view of the tool but their is a complete groove in 4 different Brakeline/Fuel Line sizes around the barrel as I mentioned earlier 3/16",1/4",5/16" and 3/8". The tool worked perfectly when building my street rod making up brake lines, transmission cooling lines and of course the complete fuel line from fuel tank to Carb. From what I can see the price on this tool is still reasonable also. I saw it for around $11.00 online some cheaper and some higher.
