I'm going to replace my tunnel lines...can I get away with fabricating my own lines out of brake line (what size-2.0 FI) or should I buck up for the stainless lines?
Thanks |

If you are not going to race it, why not just use a good quality fuel injection hose the entire length? I don't know why everyone goes to the hassle of metal lines and all the fittings since the newer style hose is very good and designed for high pressure. Racing does prohibit this though. The rubber lines only take a couple of minutes to run.
I ran mine from the front fuel pump directly to the rear filter without any additional fittings. I slid some heat shrink over the portion inside the car for abrasion resistance and some temp insulating sleeve over the outside portion. |
