I looked in the shop and parts manuals but could not find the size or material type (steel or SS)for the fuel line from tank to fuel pump for the 56 Pat.
Thanks for any feedback.

Vette Products in Clarkston Michigan sells pre made complete brake line kits with all the pieces in stainless steel if you don't want to make your own.

And two more. One of them advertised having patterns for pre-made fuel & brake lines for several different years.

I was pleasantly surprised at the number of firms offering pre-bent brake, fuel, and vacuum lines for Packard V8s.

Yet, I must be a glutton for punishment as I actually prefer to bend my own in steel.

Brian, I commend you for making them yourself. After all my trials and tribulations with my front end I was happy to outsource that aspect of my engine compartment.

I used classictube with very good results. They had the patterns for brake, fuel, vacuum, oil canister and transmission cooler lines. It took about 6 weeks to get my order so order them ahead of time as I do not believe they have them prebent in stock.

Regards,
Robert.

They may not have them listed on the website but they do have them in their catalog.

Give them a call on 800-882-3711 and ask for Tom.

Regards,
Robert.
