Looking for fuel pump outlet
My 74 project.... While going through the fuel system....I installed a new "stock" fuel pump. The car had no engine before I got it. I soon realized that the pump requires a special fitted outlet (Pump to Carb). I'm having trouble finding anyone that sells this. Any suggestions?

hi
just went thru this myself.
the pump out let is a standard pipe thread. i can't remember the size maybe 1/4 or 3/8. the rest of the parts depend upon what you are planning. stock parts are internal flare. if you are going to steel braided flex get an 90* outlet fitting that has pipe on on side and -AN type on the other. i took my pump and carb (Q jet) to a local hydraulic supply store. they had the fittings and also made up the tube. it cost less than buying an after market one-size-fits-all.
