Fuel Lines
Does anyone know of a place to get the filter to carb fuel line for a 69 390HP. Everywhere I look they only sell them in the 3 line kit that includes the return line and the pump to filter line. I would rather not spend $50 for the kit when I only need one line.

I might have one, if 68 is the same as 69 (I think it is, but let's check). I ordered a repro fuel line many moons ago from Zip and never used it. Bent my own instead. If I still have it and it fits will include it in this program:

Looking at the Paragon catalog, they have 68 and 69 listed seperately, so I am not sure if there is a difference.
I'm sorry, I actually need the filter to carb, not the pump to filter. I edited my original post.

Darn you!!!! 
Now I have to go take more pics?
J/K well, that was the lower. I think the upper piece is even easier, because I have 2 of those. My car came with the right upper but rubber only at the bottom. So after I bought the new repro line I had 2 upper pieces.
The fitting screws into the GF432 fuel filter, which is the same for 68/69. I am pretty sure the upper piece would be the same for either year, but lets get a 3rd opinion. I will take more pics.

no prob! This piece is easier for me to part with. If I give you one of these I still have a complete repro fuel line (that I am not using, but still I have a complete line). I can't even tell which one was on the car and which one was part of the repro line I bought. I don't use either because I bent my own, and the top piece looks very much like these. (Just the fitting is a different size).
So somebody tell us this should fit on a 69 and I will ship one off to you. And it won't even be a big deal if it doesn't fit, since I have an extra. Also, the top piece is much easier to make yourself anyway. You can see the bottom piece is a little trickier with the tight bends.
