January 11, 201015 yr comment_305778 Hard to really tell with the mods going on in there, but here's an educated guess: 1. Fuel return line 2. Fuel vapor evap. line (from rear canister) 3. Fuel supply line 4. Positive battery cable/solenoid switch/should be fusible link! 5. Brake master vac vacumn line (should be check valve also!) 6. Manifold tap for #5 7. Fuel pump relay?? Might not be exact, but I'm sure someone here will point that out! Good Luck!

January 11, 201015 yr comment_305785 Your fuel sup 2 picture is actually the stock fuel return line. Since you are not going to use it, just keep it plugged, but make sure your fuel pump does not overpressure the carburators because Webers are sensitive to it. Another option is to use the stock fuel rail and change your front carb fitting to a "T", so the stock fuel rail feeds the Webers from both ends. Then you can hook up the fuel return line and it will be less likely to overpressure the carbs.Your fuel ret picture is actually the gas tank vent line. You should leave that venting, but is is normally terminated higher on the fender.Your fuel firewall picture is the stock fuel supply line. Make sure you clean it first because it looks dirty.I don't know the purpose of the positive picture is. How is this related to the carb install?The boost picture, connect the brake booster line to the 30 degree angle fitting on the manifold (breather picture).The breather on the top of the valve cover should have a fillter on it. A K&N filter fits very nicely there. Check my Z photos for an example.Can't tell what the relay is for in the firewall plug picture. How is this related to the carb install?

The negative battery cable is usually under the starter mounting bolt (nearest bolt in your picture).

January 16, 201015 yr Author comment_306292 is there any place where i can get a 5/16 inlet & outlet for my mechanical fuel pump instead of the 1/4 that comes with it stock?

January 23, 201015 yr comment_307109 I'm not sure exactly what you mean... but I would suggest an electrical fuel pump for your triple webers. Some people are split on this issue, usually arguing that mechanical is fine and more reliable. I have switched back and fourth, it's a pretty intuitive part to install/uninstall.http://www.racetep.com/webfuelspark.html#webfuel.On recently switching back to electric, Summit has the 4070 for $76.http://www.summitracing.com/search/Brand/Carter/Product-Line/Carter-Universal-Rotary-Vane-Electric-Fuel-Pumps/?autoview=sku Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/34371-please-help-with-fuel-lines/#findComment-307109 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Summit page doesn't quite agree with racetep on max pressure. Are you running a return line with that pump? Is it really only 4 psi?
