I have a rubber fuel line from pump to carb with a filter in between. The filter is located near my coil near the edge of the drivers valve cover, and i dont like the looks of it. Is there a steel prebent line with an in -line filter that i can buy?

Yes, there is.

Most Mustang Parts places have them, NPD, Laurel Mtn, Mustangs Plus, etc.. Take your pick.

You can also make your own out of aluminum tubing like the Russell stuff from Summit.

Option 3 is to buy a braided stainless line kits from summit, jeggs etc..

If you can’t just cut the line and add rubber hose to the filter then to the carb.

Steel fuel line conversion from hose with inline filter

I am also trying to replace my pump to carb rubber hose fuel line with pre-bent stainless fuel line (purchased from NPD). My 289 has a powersteering pump and the pre-bent line seems to interfere with the powersteering pump bracket.

Does anyone have any pics of their steel line routed with PS pump bracket?

The problem with prebent metal lines is they are bent for the stock carberator. If you have an Edelbrock or Holley on there then forget it. You can buy steel fuel line and a tubing bender + flaring tool and do it yourself.
