Default Need molded plastic fuel lines for my 94 Camaro

Does anyone know where I can find molded plastic fuel lines for a 94 Camaro V6 base? A truck blew out his tire in front of me on the hwy, and I couldn't avoid running over the remnants. Apparently, it sliced both fuel lines underneath the driver's side behind the left front tire. I have called and searched every place that I can think of for 2 days now, and still have had no luck finding them. My poor car is sitting at the mechanics, which are scratching their heads and have no further advice. My father and I rebuilt this car when I was 15, and hate to see something like this keep it off the road. Any advice will be truly appreciated!!

Get some steel braided lines. Those plastic lines are going to pe really hard to find.

A real parts store can make them up for you. Heck if you lived by me I could make them up for you.

Temporarily you could slide a piece of fuel line over the damaged section until you find the real thing. Just go easy with the hose clamps as you don't want to crush the plastic pipes. Use 2 clamps on each end so that they hold without having to be too tight. Make sure to check for leaks before driving off.

NAPA sells the fuel line in 5/16 and 3/8 in a ten foot section. I just bought a section of the 3/8. I paid like $18.00 for the 3/8. When you get it the proper way to install it is to put the end in boling hot water and let it soften. As quick as you can slide it on the steel portion of the fuel lines. When it cools it will be locked in place. If you can't find it send me a PM and I will get you the part numbers. Good luck.
