| Was wondering if anyone could tell me whether there's a difference between the '64 - '66 Imperial, 413 w/727 trans, and a '64 Chrysler NYer with the same, as relates to transmission cooling line locations, etc? I'm looking at ordering these - http://www.getdiscbrakes.com/htc6401 - but they only state that they're for the Imperial. I know I'll likely have to modify them since it's in a '60 Dodge Matador, but I just want to know if the drive train is the same.
Also, rather than start a new thread, same question regarding 413 fuel pump to carb hard lines. I find the following, one is a 2-pc ( http://www.getdiscbrakes.com/hpc6401 ), the other a 3-pc ( http://www.getdiscbrakes.com/hpc6102 ), and I'm not sure which I should order? Unfortunately, there are no pics of either fuel line set.
Thanks!

Location: Perth Australia | Cant imagine that they would be that different (That = I dont know), but you have mentioned 3 different cars there, why not just make them?

| I'm open to it, but I'm not really sure on routing? Also, are all of the bends necessary (for drivetrain movement, etc), or can I route them a bit more directly? It just seems easier to start with something close & modify it, but I don't know? I'm new to all this. :-) |

Location: Perth Australia | I made mine from braided hose, but if you want it like factory, they run under the starter, follow the sump, then split left and right at the front of the sump to the radiator

Location: Ontario, Canada | They are just 5/16" steel tubing with double flare ends. Same as the long front to rear fuel lines. I made them for all my cars. The loops at the rad ends are there to dampen the engine vibrations so as not to stress the flared ends.

Location: Valley Forge, Pa. | IF you don't care about being totally correct, use the cropro-nickle tubing. Higher busting strength than steel, more corrosion resistant, and MUCH MUCH easier to bent and flair. + it looks nice. A little more expensive but well worth it. It is used on many high end European vehicles and military stuff.

| Thanks for the input guys. As I'm not a fan of crawling around in the dirt constantly, I decided to buy from the link I posted earlier. Got them in about a week, and they appear to be correct, but I won't know until I get under the car, hopefully this weekend. I probably would have considered making them if I had an actual garage to work in...
Anyway, will post back about the fit once they're on. |

| Got them installed today, only had to make a couple minor bends to get them to fit. Overall, definitely worth the money. HPC6401 and HTC6401 kits. |
