19 October 2019 - fuel line

Replaced the fuel line from the carb to fuel pressure regulator.  I had a two sections of an6 female end hoses connected to a fuel filter, that ran from the carb inlet to the fuel pressure outlet.  That layout didnt allow the installation of a 14" air cleaner assembly, I could only install smalller odd shaped filters.


Heres what the fuel line/air filter setup looked like before replacing the fuel pressure regulator to carb fuel line...whats not shown is the fuel filter that is hidden from view by the distributor...


Here you can see the fuel filter..




Heres what the setup looks like after re-arranging the -6an hoses...this was done so that a 14" air cleaner assembly could be installed...

The  black hard line at the carb has a -6an female connector. The blue fitting is a -6an male to -6an male straight union/adapter.



The blue -6an to -6an adapter connects the -6an hose with -6an female ends to the fuel pressure regulator
