Default Making Fuel Line,..Quick Question

In the past I've used the 6' fuel line from GM, part number 22527595, cut a length from each end coupled it with the C4 fuel filter, AC Delco # GF652F, then double-flared the ends of the line that mate to the carb and pump. Worked and looked great.

GM # 22527595 is discontinued and not to be found. I think I've found a replacement in the Dorman catalog but wanted to check first. Does anybody know if this repair line:

...will work with this filter?:

Thanks in advance.

that's probably because we order the pre-bent fuel lines from a vendor and don't make our own.

This may be what you want. Got this at Advance Auto - Dorman 800-153 Quick Disconnect 3/8" X 18" Fuel Line Repair. It's got an o-ring flare at one end and plain at the other. Will save you time and shipping costs.

Yes, that line will mate to the C4 filter.

69V,..Yeah, that's the same thing only the one I referred is 30" vs. 18". I was thinking 18" from the filter-to-carb and I'd need more than 18" pump-to-filter.
