Six Pack Braided Fuel Lines?

[493 Mike]

Has anyone here installed AN fuel lines on a triple Holley setup? What carb adapter/fitting combo will clear the diaphragm housing on the front carb? I want to run individual lines from a fire wall mounted distribution block and envision 3 identical lines sweeping from the block to the carbs.
My current setup is outdated/industrial.

Each of my 6 Paks got braided lines. The stock metal were not very good. With the braided lines I had to up size the inlet fittings.

This is the exact setup I have from Promax and I like it. A little pricey but I hated messing with those metal lines and taking them back off with the carbs mounted was a huge pain

I have the same setup - love the look and functionality

I almost bought those but I like the original look.

WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!
I have the Promax lower and 3 way upper stainless steel braided fuel lines.
They are GREAT.
The WARNING is you MUST flush the lines out thoroughly before you use them!
I wound up with braid clippings in my carbs because I assumed they were clean lines.
I got the inline reusable fuel filter and pressure gauge as part of the Promax setup.
Also, keep the stock fuel bowl fitting washer. I had really bad luck with the chrome thicker washers that came with the Promax upper 3 way lines.
I also haven't figured out yet how to reincorporate the fuel vapor separator since I installed the lower fuel line.

Flush the lines before you connect them!

Wow, it's too late for me to do that, they've been installed since last year but I had no issues with mine

Consider yourself fortunate.
I have one major car/vacation "event" every year, Cruisin the Coast in Mississippi. It is a week long event that my wife and I look forward to. I had just got my 3 2bbl Holley carbs back from being modded by Promax along with her 3 2bbl Rochesters and was frantically getting both cars ready. She has a 1965 GTO with a 421 Tripower 4 speed that we had just had a Quick Performance Ford 9" rear axle assembly installed in along with UMI rear suspension system and a 4 wheel disc Wilwood brake system. I also have a 1 man small business, so needless to say I was hopping.
I installed the Carter M6903 mech fuel pump that I bought 2 years ago along with the Promax lower and upper fuel lines. I even paid Promax to run in / pre-tune my carbs so I would have less to do.
Well I spent the week gritting my teeth as I drove my car at the event because it ran worse than ever. It was running ok before I sent my carbs to Promax. When I finally got the time to pull the lines a month later, I found shards of braid clippings in the lines and in the Promax metering block.
Once I flushed the lines and the disassembled carbs, everything was great.

Well that sucks. You're the first one I've heard anything like this from, hopefully it was an isolated incident but still a word to the wise!
