A new fuel tank and metal lines came with my SS. The lines are in 3 pieces and I can't figure out where each goes. There is one long line has a straight 3 ft section and assorted bends. The other 2 are 31-32 inches long with bends. I can't seem to fit them in the car. My old lines were taken out by the sand blaster so I don't know where they were . I have the clips on the frame. It appears the line goes outside the frame then inside the x on the frame , then outside. I can't determine whether I have the wrong lines . There are no names on the line so I can't call the source. Any help, diagrams, pictures would be appreciated.

In the first place, the 5/16" line runs differently than the 3/8" line. I'd suggest that you purchase an Assembly Instruction Manual (AIM) which will show you exactly where both lines go.
Also, if your car has dual exhaust, you must use the 3/8" lines. The 3/8" line runs inside the X in the frame, alongside the driveshaft.
