Well, got my tank out and I have one of the Tangerine Racing fuel lines in stainless (just one line as my car has carbs) and I can not seem to find the instructions or have just misplaced them. I bought the line from Chris about 2 years ago.I have done a search but can't seem to find any threads about others installing them.
Just wanted to ask how much work it is and how hard and if anybody has some tips to share or even add some pictures. I hope I can do this myself this weekend. Do I need to pull out the carpet in the center tunnel area? Thank you |

I took care of mine with the engine in, and the rear up on jackstands. Lift the tunnel carpeting, and remove the front access plate so you could access the rubber grommet that the lines pass through under the fuel tank. I dont remember if I removed the shifter for more access, but remove it if you see the need. Other than that, after your old lines are disconnected, you can pull them out from the back (under the car). Make sure the grommets at the rear firewall are present (and in good shape) before pushing the new SS line through. Im sure this.would've been easier with 2 people, one under the car pushing the lines in, and another inside guiding it through the tunnel, but I was able to do it without any help, so its definitely doable.
