Kerry has the most correct fuel line that he had Right Stuff make for him. I believe that he still have a couple left.

I assume you are referring to the non smog fuel line?  Idk if anyone makes it correctly.

I was just informed that the one made by Right Stuff or In-line cant remember was used from a certain 4K car.  There might be a way to have it copied.  I will check and see if anyone is willing to help out.

Hard to say for certain without seeing the car but I would bet on it being a smog car being that late into production.

Fair assumption that any non-California destination car didn't have the optional smog.

the correct part # is FPC67WK A  but last I heard they lost their pattern and couldn't make them any more. They still cant make it 100%. The bend coming out of the fuel pump is not correct  the machines today cant make it. They made a couple for me last year. Most people will never know the difference

Keri made the pattern off my unrestored 67 L78 Chevelle. 

The right stuff p/n is FPC67WF A  (not FPC67WK A).  And you have to tell them to put the space in before the A or they cannot find it in their computer!! 

It is not "perfect" at the bottom bend but is MUCH better than the 68 version which they were selling as 67-68 before.

Good luck!  Jeff Helms
