Does anyone know if the 71 front fuel/vapor lines are different from 72?

Anyone install any lately with pix? They got me stumped...

'70-71 fuel and return lines run along the passenger side frame rail, on the engine mount cross member, and end on the drivers side near the fuel pump.

'72-74 fuel and return lines run along the passenger side frame rail and end at the engine mount cross member. Rubber fuel hose goes through a clip on the engine timing cover and to the fuel pump.

Thanks Dens! Any pix? Love to see how that looks in place...Even a 70 too? Diagram? Something has to be out there? No?

Mike first thing you need to get is the assembly manual

Judge273 11-02-2016 10:53 AM

Big thanks! Double clipped with brake line at inside of motor cross member?

Dens71TA 11-02-2016 02:39 PM

Yes, the main feed fuel line and the brake line for the passenger side front caliper are clipped together.

Yes, they are not painted. Due to heat treating they are very dark grey to black color as are the rear leaf springs

I know right....this one will be driven by my better half. She wants perfection too.

Historic day....Cubs World Champion Parade in Chicago, and Trans Am going to the body shop!

Mike your neighbors must be thrilled to see it gone. Your moving right along and hopefully you can be on the road next summer.

Body is away at the spa...

Pre assembly continues at the homebase.
