Neil, � I think it is fine however I do question what kind of line you will be using.� Generally speaking the copper-nickel based stuff is nearly indestructible and won't rust out, plus is by far the easiest to work�(a guy on *bay will sell it reasonably in the roll of 25 feet,�he sells sets for 914/911 and Triumphs and stocks 10mm fittings for the Porsches.)� The plastic coated is worst IMHO (for home use at least when you make your own flares using a hand tool) when you damage the coating you have uncoated mild steel, and the galvanized/zinc coated is somewhere between.� I think stainless is too hard to work personally, and don't care for it.� Some random thoughts anyway.��As much as a PITA this is you don't want to do it twice.� I find the rear lines meeting at the rear T (particularly the long one going in front of the tranny) are usually worse than the front to rear one, so don't neglect it. � John --- On Sat, 9/5/09, neil N <musomuso@GMAIL.COM> wrote: Front 92" portion is shaped and installed at pressure regulator, but just after first 2 bends from regulator, and possibly elsewhere, is it ok to use a clean piece of fuel hose or ? to� keep it from rattling against the frame/subframe?
