I am going to relive and change to a 2 port.
Found lost of good info here. 1. I can’t seem to find a late blister. Why couldn’t I just use a flat plate? 2. Am I correct in thinking other than cutting a door hatch and using the blister )or my home made door) that the fuel hose on this set up would be shorter and more protected than hanging the pump near the steering rack? The hose going out of the tank area then need to go back through just seems less desirable. |

Copper line is not good in a fuel system. Copper will work harden with vibration, and eventually crack and leak. Plus, some gasoline mixes will erode the inside of the copper tube and put crap into the fuel. |

Copper has no use in our cars but I think the pic is showing plated large diameter brake line which is plated that colour…..just saying or maybe copper (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) . |
