Re: [FWDLK] Tube that feeds heat to choke control

["Bill K." <pontiac@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Isn't this stuff about the same steel tubing they sell as brake line
material?


Seems like you could get the shortest length of it they sell, paint to match
if it's a show car, cut one end off, re-use the original fitting and press
the other end into the manifold.


That might not be 100-point car quality but it would be functional -
