Metal Fuel Line Setup Pics
I am finally getting around to removing the 8 inch run of rubber fuel hose and replacing it with metal line. I am going to go ahead and replace the entire line from the fuel pump to the fuel filter. Can someone post a pic of their setup so I can get an idea on how to run the line. Also what size fuel line will I need?
Thanks Much |

You can use steel brake line (NAPA has them premade). Mine was 5/16 for my 305V6. It worked great. Take a metal clothes hanger and bend it into the proper shape (i.e., from the pump to the carb). Cut the hanger the same lenght as the straight pre-fabed brake line and use it as a template. You will need a tubing bender.
