Stainless fuel line - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Ok, so I just bought all my brake lines in stainless for my shortbed project.

I plan to move my gas tank to the back of the frame, but they wanted to much for some plane jaine fuel line with no fittings. I can bend tube, so it's not an issue.

Where's a good place to get stainless tubing in long lengths? I don't want connections in the middle of the truck.

Also, what size should I buy?

I think Summit Racing or Jegs has rolls of 25 ft in length.

I was just thinking about the same thing this weekend.

In line tube www.inlinetube.conm sells coils of stainless tubing and fittings too. Once on the page right columb click on Straight length tubing, then look for inline tubing coils on left side.

Let me know what lay-out you come up with and which size you would use, please..

I went with red anodized aluminum from summit racing in 3/8"

Inline tube was too expensive and I think the aluminum will rock.

Inline tube sucks. I call them last week in regards to modifying their stock fuel lines so I could run an in tank pump for my LT-1. Well needless to say the salesman wasn't helpful and said they could not modify their lines because they are computer bent and wouldn't do it either. Classic tube was much more helpful and would work with me on my needs. They said they would add a inline filter like modern cars and put AN fittings on each end so I could run stainless flex lines where I need to be different than factory. Safe to say I will be using Classic Tube for my Blazer needs.

I liked classic tube better as far as customer relations but they were very slow to deliver . Chris
