Ok, got the gas tank out last night.

Going to run 2 new steel lines. My plan was to use 3/8 for both lines and place a small low pressure pump under the tank to feed the 60psi pump back near the LS motor.

Is it safe to run all low pressure fuel hoses and connections to and from the tank? I was planning on using 6AN connections for the high pressure line from the big pump to the motor?

thoughts and suggestions are greatly appreciated.

thank you

stock 914 FI fuel pump for 28 to 31 psi are doing his job and even for carbs with 2.5 to 3psi does not have any problem.

ooops edit: You are referring to fuel hoses. I believed everytime you have FI system, you really need to use high pressure fuel hoses for all lines.
