Looking for the correct Carter or other brand mechanical fuel pump for my '73 440 Charger. The fuel line from the tank is 3/8 inch and doesn't match the 5/16 inlet I was sold on the Carter M6935 pump I bought from Rock Auto.

You probably just need an adapter. They have used them for decades on pumps. I jusst looked up your application on Summit's site and came up with the same number.
About all you can do is replace the pump or in the short hose from the steel line to the pump use a 5/16 to 3/8 hose adapter.

this has the 3/8 inlet, but depending on what carb you're running the 8psi may be a bit much for a typical Edelbrock.

They make threaded adapters. Most parts stores and hardware stores sell them. Heck. Many fuel pumps include one in the box. Same pump, multiple applications.
The pump the poster bought has a fixed 5/16 male nipple/hose barb.
