Title: Fuel Line Clamps
Post by: 6T6/7 on July 08, 2020, 08:30:05 PM
This may have already been discussed before, but I wasn't able to find it... For a 66 with 715 Holley, what are the correct clamps for the hose between hard line and fuel filter, crimp style or the three-prong spring clamp?  I think I've seen both types used.

Actually there is evidence to support that both were used but with that said you would get less questioning with the crimp style for a 66 GT350 because it was the most common IMO.
