I've been meaning to do that, just haven't gotten around to it yet. The Quadrajet has a filter in the inlet and I have a new hard line for it but the clocking of the outlet on the pump is not right. The Vette requires a different pump and my tube bending skills leave a lot to be desired.

Can't you re-clock your pump to move the fittings where you need them to be? I had to do that on the roadster.

No, unfortunately, it's a crimped pump. The outlet fitting is about 90º from where it should be. I had the right one in my eBay summary until a computer crash a while back. I'll find it again and get one ordered.
