The block having a problem is what I am thinking and that is why I thought I would see what other members were using and changing the whole thing. I like the looks of some of them on the vintage speed web site. Mike do you guys offer a kit that has the block and the lines?

The block has pipe thread holes in it so I have to put adapters in it to the flare fittings. That is what I am fighting is the seal between the adapters and the block and the lines to the adapters. Once I get one to stop another one is leaking. If I could find a block with the flares in it that would cut my connections in half.

Here is a picture of what I have now. I had solid lines from the block to the carbs and thought they might be in a bind so I cut them and placed sections of rubber hose. Looks horrible but if I can get it to work then I can be driving the truck while I find something better. I resealed everything with pipe paste and letting it sit and dry for now. I am going to try it tomorrow night. If it still leaks I am going to reinstall the cheap chrome block I have and see what it does.

Thanks for all the advice and help everyone.
