I've got one fuel line to install (carbs) and the engine is out. I had no luck getting the new line in further than 8 -12"
I can't imagine doing this with the engine in without bending the f*ck out of the new line.... |

This is what I did and it literally took me about 10 minutes for both. I sat under the car with my feet towards the front of the car. I fed the lines into the hole and pushed. As I pushed the lines I twisted them left and right. Each line went into the tunnel and all the way forward to the access panel near the pedals. Every time it seemed as if they were held up I twisted some more and they eventually worked their way forward.
