SS Fuel Line Installation, with pictures Options

I started out to restore my 73 2.0L to its original D-Jetronic fuel injection. At some point I decided that I while I was working on the fuel system I might as well replace the plastic lines with stainless steel and relocate the pump. Here are some pictures with commentary of the fuel line upgrade.

Overall the fuel line install was fairly easy. It would have been much easier if I hadn't decided to run one solid line from the tank all the way to by the MPS sensor. If I did this over again I would do everything the same except that the solid lines would stop at the right side of the firewall and I'd run hose from there.

First, I removed the interior and pulled the fuel tank. Here is a photo of the tank halfway out. The hoses on the tank were long enough that I didn't need to disconnect them through the service hole below the tank. I was able to lift the tank to this position and then disconnect the hoses from above. The new hoses I installed are also long enough to permit access from above.
