Here's something to not do.

I thought I'd see if this fitting was threaded into the pump so I could replace it with one for 3/8 fuel line. Nope, just ruins the pump! It was a good move, though! I have the hemi pump on the way! I'm straying from my goal of making the engine look as factory correct as possible. Making it better...

Twist it the other direction and it will pop back out.

And possibly crack.

I'm calling it junk.

Good idea. I was trying to be funny. I have to get better at using the little smiley face thingies. (like that).

Doesn't look like it but since that one is junk now so cut it apart and see.

I think you'll find that it's swaged over on the inside.

Ouch! I'll gladly destroy a few fuel pumps compared to that!

Ha ha! I gotta learn somehow... I'll call it a happy accident since this one will get replaced by Hemi one. I'm building a 512 stroker 6 barrel so it's gonna need some fuel! I just hope the hard fuel lines won't be to far out of whack with a different pump.
