Gene is right about the fuel pump push rod. Replaced mine with a NOS several years ago and never had a problem since. However the original line is steel and routes a lot higher than 4 inches. It also is no where near the head, but over the intake manifold. It also comes from the fuel pump to the carb. The filter bowl is ahead of the pump. Fuel enters it from the steel tank line via a short rubber hose with threaded ends. You have to have the hose here to isolate engine movement from the body. Any rigid line will crack. These are notorious for leaking air and thus stopping fuel flow. Contact me at mcaliron at yahoo dot com for more info. Where in Texas are you?
