    fuel line

    Sorry. It goes in the engine compartment left side near tire through a small hole. The black tubing is going thru the hole not the metal gas line itself. The gas line falls short of the hole. Can I just get longer tubing? Or does the metal gas line need to go thru the hole? How do u bend a gas...

    Thanx for the Pony pep talk. I just have to get used to being a classic owner. I am glad I'm in the brotherhood. Thanx. I'm not selling her. At least not yet.

    fuel line

    Hey guys, Is the gas line that goes into the hood from the side through the hole suppose to be crimped. The black hose makes a 90 degree right turn into hood causing a crimp. Gas still makes it to carb. Is this normal? Thanx

    fuses

    Went to 5 stores to get fuses. In stead of 7.5 short I got a 9 short. Instead of 2.5 short I got a 2.0 short. NO 20 amps though. I find it amazing that no one has fuses for this car. If I can't even get right fuses for her, than I realize I'm in over my head. Who wants to buy a 68 stang?

    Do I need to order special fuses online? I'm thinking I do. The ones I got at pep boys are right amperage just not right size to fit in fuse box under dash?

    ac or no ac parts

    Thanx Ponyboy. I'm straight w/the rad. The bigger one is ordered. I ordered the heater core w/ ac. The core must've been leaking so previous owner took out. Car was in Fl. for yrs. I'll be hooking up ac next summer. Plenum and seal kit on way too. Now to work on fuses. As the ones I got do not fit?

    ac or no ac parts

    I have a 68 289. All the part sites ask me if it has AC or no AC. I'm a little confused at how I should ans. Ex.-heater core,belts,radiator. It had ac. Now it doesn't. I plan on getting ac back in her. Do I choose the ac or no ac ques. ? Thanx

    Quick note Pony Boy- The carb was a motorcraft. It had a tag attached to it. Holley said they worked on it already. This carb is 40 yrs. old and looks like it. The car was so neglected. So I went with a holley 500cfm 2bb. I have my wife on my @$$ about buying a car that needs work. So I just...

    Thanks. I called up Holly and found out that they already rebuilt my carb. I had it rebuilt to drive home last week. Float still stuck. After Holly told me that. I just ordered a new carb 500cfm. I joined so many sites at once, it's a little confusing. Thanx Ponyboy
