I'm starting my conversion back to EFI and noticed that the plastic fuel lines running through the tunnel are not in bad shape. I'm tempted to use them as is. Anyone on the board have experience with the longevity of these plastic lines? If they are an accident waiting to happen, I'll replace them with SS.

The ones I just replaced were in great shape and I could have left them be. On my other car, the tunnel portion of the lines were great, but once it entered the engine bay they were fragile and did shatter.
