Stainless Steel Fuel Lines

Instead of the hard steel fuel lines from the tank to the pump on the engine, can you run these high pressure flexible lines from Russell or Earls?

Yes but why, for a street car, they are way to overrated in my opinion. Some drag racing sanctioning bodies require them but why spend the extra money (and it will be alot by the time you buy the line and fittings which are outrageously priced) to get something that will not help nor hinder the preformance of your car. This is my OPINION only though so do what you want.

I thought that since I had to replace the line anyway that it would be easier to route a flexible line up to the engine. 10 feet of line would cost about fifty bucks. Then there is the return line? another fifty bucks. I see what you mean now.

Thanks!

The best place for fuel injection fuel lines and fittings I have found is Ron Morris Performance. They have the factory nylon lines for $2.50 a foot among other things. Here is the site: http://www.ronmorrisperformance.com/04fuel/fittings.htm

Good luck!
