Q-Jet Problem

The female housing that holds the fuel filter is stripped out and I'm unable to seat the male portion causing fuel to leak. Have used teflon tape, but to no avail. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Carb is original to a 68 1/2ton 327.

I believe they make a oversized self tapping fitting to repair the stripped threads.
