Hi Graham, I have no experience yet to share, but I alsoB do not seeB any
responses to you yet. For what its worth B I am looking at the same crossover
tube connection issue. In my case I am going to 3/8 inch lines. I do not know
if you are staying with 5/16. If so, maybe you could salvage the existing
fitting and use it on a new line.
If like me you are going to 3/8 inch lines, c heck out Holley part number on
26-70 on Summit Racing's site. It looks like this would work, connecting on
the female side to the 5/16 nipple on the crossover pipe. You could then
connect a compression nut and sleeve on the 3/8 inch line side and be sure of
a good seal.I d o not know if the nipple threads and adapter threads are
compatible, since I have not tried it.B B If you do and it works, please let
me know!B B If you are staying with 5/16 lines, B this will obviously not
help, but thought it worth mentioning, just in case it might be helpful.B C
heers, Gene

Subject: [Tigers] Gas tank crossover tube fitting
Listers -
I'm in the process of replumbing the fuel line between the fuel tank
crossover tube and the fuel pump. B I have an aftermarket fuel pump that's
mounted on the trunk bulkhead in the spare tire well. B The current
configuration uses about 18 inches of the original fuel line to connect to
the gas tank crossover tube. B The line is damaged and I'd like to replace
it. B Will a standard NPT or AN fitting thread onto the crossover tube
nipple? B Any experience out there using anodized fittings to connect to the
crossover tube? B
Thanks as always,
Graham Harlowe
