Thanks man and I must say that I feel very good right now. When I bubble flared both ends of the in-cab line I literally stood there, holding the tube in my hands, and just staring at it.
I am totally motivated to do the rest.
There seems to be some confusion concerning the lines though.....I am essentially going back with what was there before: metal lines connected by short lengths of rubber tubing and metal tubing with fittings for under the hood.
The only changes I intend are 3/8" tubing vs. 5/16", a fuel filter located under the passenger side of the cab, and a fuel shut-off valve behind the seat.
