Fuel line time?

[dangerdog]

Steel tubing or braided? Which would be better? Also thinking on plumbing in a electric fuel pump. Instead of the mechanical. This is for my truggy project, Old Blue.

I used both on my build. Came off the tank with braided (6an), went to hardline all the way down the frame (3/8' feed/5/16" return) and then back to braided up the firewall to the EFI.

Are you still running a K5 tank or fuel cell?

Fuel cell. Yes that would be cheaper and have the looks and ease of the braided where you can see it.

the fittings ad up quick to transition from hardline to braided so make sure you take those into account when pricing it out.

Summit sells a kit that consists of the line ,fittings ,fuel pump and filter. I kind of like that idea.

I've heard bad things about the summit brand AN fittings snapping. Just and FYI.

Thanks for the heads up.

I've used them on several cars with no issues. People tend to over tighten AN fittings....
