I’ve installed the 914rubber stainless steel fuel lines on my ‘75. Here’s a pic of how they terminate in the engine bay. No way to connect the feed line to the 3-4 fuel rail with a straight piece of hose. As it is currently I’ll have to create a ‘loop’ with the rubber line to make the connection work without kinking. Anyone else run into this?

Zach thanks for the confirmation. I spent more time last night swapping the steel lines back and forth in the engine bay only to land in the same place as the photo I posted. Cutting the steel line to avoid looping the rubber line is tempting, but then I'd lose the bead that helps keep the rubber line attached, so I guess I'll go with the loop.

Meptstein I think those pieces are just for the early cars that have the fuel pump located in the back.
