Get the steel fuel line as close as you can to the reg, surge, engine connections and yeah just run rubber hose from there.

I've gone one size smaller on the return line, so 3/8 (10mm) feed, 5/16 (8mm) return.

That's the plan anyway - still waiting to hear from CAMS on the rear firewall requirement.....I think I might need one.

pirtek obviously does it different, they cut mine from a straight section to the length i wanted (prob only 3-4 meters)

i spose the coil is handy if you dont have a hatchback to get it home

Between $10 & $15/metre for 3/8, about $10 or less / metre for 5/16"

I payed $13 a metre for 3/8" bundy tube. It comes in lengths of 6 metres....so I just got all 6 to save them cutting it.

Comes in a hoop around a metre in diameter....so not too hard to roll straight.

What did they flog it for per meter? Im miles away from even having to worry about this im still working out if It'll fit! but would be a good resource to come back to if there were some figures thrown around.

just to clear up.... steel fuel line (covered for its protection) through the cabin is fine as long as there is no connections anywhere in the cabin

i bought fuel line from pirtek... if you know the length you want they will flare the ends for you (i measured the stock pipe roughly with a tape measure and it worked out fine for me)

and you can bend it up by hand without a problem

so no tools required for that

use the stock line as a return pipe
