Stainless steel fuel lines
« 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?

Shit, go to a liquor store, pick up an issue of Hot Rod. In the back they have the ads for a company that specializes in fuel lines. 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.

That may be what I'm looking for. The listings are a little disheartening thoughh.
'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.

Anyone know where to get the little rubber brake hose that is above the rear end?  Maybe one in braided stainless?

Russell makes that rear hose in braided steel teflon line.

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.

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.
