Title: Source for these flexible fuel lines
Post by: EDNY on May 05, 2021, 03:12:14 PM

These fuel lines in the picture are from a Corvette.....trying to locate a source that sells these type of flexible fuel lines with open ends so I can flare them with my own flare nuts.  Looking for 3/8" but 5/16" (for return lines) would be great.

Any ideas?

Don't know of anyone who sells "universal" lines like this. Is it possible to buy Corvette lines, cut off the fittings and use your own?

I need to run a salvage yard and just remove some used lines from the old junkers. 
Those Corvette lines run a couple hundred dollars.

I spent almost an hour in O'Reilly yesterday figuring a way to make the tranny cooler lines in my '92 Suburban connect. It go easy one I talked them into letting me look at the ones behind the counter. It was so much easier when I worked there.  :) I don't know what my friend did to this before I got it or why they weren't connected.
