Talk about being disappointed. My thought is I have the wrong m/c lines. These are from Fine Lines and for 69 B Body with fender side exit on m/c.
The only way I see this working is to dimple the the inner fender and i don't want to do that. Another thought was to cut about 3/8" off line and new flare. But I don't think there is enough line to use a flare tool. Is there something wrong that I'm not seeing?

Thanks

Can you clock the line clockwise to allow the line to then lay forward and above the fender apron?
There is not enough room to reflare using the bench vise type Eastwood tool that I have but maybe you could with those cheaper hand held tools.

This looks like the answer.

First thing i thought also, you have plenty of line there, twist it forward gently til the line is over the apron by 1/4" or so and call it a day...
 
Bend the lines, they bend easy if not stainless steel. Don't kink them.
