I remember reading a post about people never having taken off their rocker panels and was wondering if there were anyone else with the original fuel lines in the tunnel.
I just ordered new SS lines from Tangerine today, but was curious if I'm one of the last holdouts having milked these things beyond reason. I haven't driven this car very much in the past 10 years, so it was never a priority to me, until now. Thanks |

I replaced all of mine with Tangerine Racing SS lines. The only ones that were still good were the black ones from 75, seems as though that is the year the lines were subject to operating pressure from the front mounted pump and going through the tunnel and Porsche decided to upgrade the lines..... All the others were gravity fed through the tunnel.............but why take the chance..........all the early lines were as brittle as glass, so it's a no brainer.
