Stock fuel pump users.
I'm bending a new high tech "Lars" fuel line (with in line filter) and have a question.
The outlet from the pump to the carb faces towards the rear of the vehicle. On my current line I bent a 180 degree turn in the line so it could be routed up the front of the block.
Question: Did GM put a 90 degree adapter on the pump so the outlet faces the block?
CAn I just get a brass adapter at a hardware store to get this to work?
Is it a GM part? NAPA perhaps?
Let me know.....

I went to NAPA and they did not have the fitting. Anyway I asked to see a new fuel pump (I bought my cheapo one at Autozone). They didnt have one for a 74 in stock so I asked to see one from a 74 Camaro with a 350.
Bottom line is that the outlet on the Camaro pump is facing the block thus no need for the adapter.
I think I'll just get a new pump and forget about the bubba pipe fittings.
Incidently, the Corvette pump was twice the cost of the Camaro one....go figure.
