1961 WCFB Fuel inlet fitting

[Art B.]

Can anyone tell me the best way to obtain the brass fitting that goes between the carb. and the fuel line. I have a 1x4 230hp. The fitting goes on with a 1" wrench. I have contacted Paragon but they cannot help. I don't see it in either their catalog or Corvette Central's.

If I'm understanding correctly what you're looking for, it was once known as GM #3759759. Unfortunately, it was discontinued without supercession more than 25 years ago. However, this part was also known as Carter #15-70S. It MAY still be available through Carter parts channels.

Otherwise, this fitting was the same as used for most 1959-63 Carter 4 barrel carburetors. So, if you can find a scrap carburetor, you should have the piece you seek.
