1st. place I would try is NAPA then Home depot. Bring your old fitting along to match. NAPA can look in their WeatherHead brass fitting book to see what may be available. Problem is you MAY have to buy more than one.

Hi,
By shear stupidity, I managed to destroy the thread in the connection that goes from the fuel pump tot the carburetor in my 1955 Buick Century 322 nailhead.
My problem is that I can find fuel pumps but not the brass connection in which you screw the fuel line leading up to the carburetor.
Anyone who can help me out?
Many thanks
Patrick

Of course that makes it a little more difficult. Can you post pictures??? I'll see if I can identify the brass connector & try & locate one for you.

Hi Patrick,
Have a new one made in a machineshop, if yours is damaged too much to take all measurements you can use mine. I don't know which region you're in but I live around Oudenaarde.
