All Aircooled FI engine had metal line with small flex hose to join them!
Even the fuel rail were metal, now, why they went platic?? money i guess?

Now, those metal fuel rails are not that dificult to find, and this is WHERE
the main problem is, at those rails and the little flex line between
injectors and rail.

I did use some on my EX Tornado Red engine, they work fine.
