Fuel Tank Question, Replacing Plastic Hose Options

[JawjaPorsche]

I am replacing my plastic tunnel fuel lines that go to the fuel tank with stainless steel lines.

My question is this: The rubber hoses that goes from tank to fuel line, do you disconnect and connect from steering cover underneath or do you allow enough hoses to do it from the top?

Thank you in advance for your answer.

IMHO if you don't have the tank out then do it the factory short hose way from below - & do the FP relocation up on the front firewall behind the steering rack/cover at the same time - if you've had vapor lock problems & not had it moved there before now (AA sells a hardware kit for parts to reloc, & email me if you want pix of mine done back in the late 70's).

However, if you're pulling the tank, then do it that way, but I personally don't like all the extra hose noted above cuz it leaves more area to develop an unseen leak.
