After I finished the rebuild of the 3 Holleys, I reconnected the fuel lines. Unfortunately, when my brother-in-law owned the car, he has stainless steel fuel lines installed. My advice is always stick with steel. These lines are so hard it is very difficult to seat the line into the brass blocks. They leaked in virtually every connection. I ordered a new OS set, but when I got them the bends were terrible, so sent them back for replacement. In the meantime, I saw reference on the Forum to The Pontiac Tri-Power Power Team. They sell tapered coppers washers for the connection. Put those in and no more leaks. I would recommend you try these at $2 each. Contact is John Wright at www.pontiactripower.com. I didn't see these available at my typical Corvette suppliers. Hope this tip makes your rebuild process go better.

This is a great reminder, and these copper washers work. You can also use them for brakes. They can be had from Amazon too. Bottom of Post #7 for a video of how they work, and links to Amazon: https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...ix-thread.html
