Title: Stainless steel fuel lines
Post by: Recklessrob on January 26 2008, 11:56:42 PM: I'm looking for stainless steel fuel lines. Not the set that goes to the fuel rail, but
rather the lines to and from the fuel filter and the return line that runs along side them. Anyone ever seen these? Where?

I wan tot say it's called Inline Tube or something. I think they even sell the multi-piece kits, so you don't have to take the damn body off the frame to get them in.

'83 to '87 all have the same turbo oil feed line
The list a V8 for the GN 3/8" feed line etc...
I guess I'd have to call them to make sure?

Try these guys. I have a friend that swears by them. He has used them on several GS's.

I've only seen it available as part of a 3 hose kit that includes the two front rubber hose lines in braided stainless teflon as well.

About $80 for all 3.

Jegs, Summitt etc.

Post by: BigMike on December 24 2010, 09:10:02 AM: I did my Limited and bought all the ss brake lines and all the ss fuel and return lines and ss vapor lines. I drove down to classic tube in Lancaster NY (about a 1 1/2 drive from me in Canada)
The guy I dealt with owns a Grand National and was very helpful(cant remember his name)
I ordered over the phone then went to pick them up. Make sure you have lots of room in your truck. Lines are long . Then I spent the next two days putting them on. Pain in the butt. I replaced all the lines because someone bent the factory line at the fuel filter and replaced it with a rubber piece.This was before I owned it.
