I bought 3/8" and 5/16" (2 each 60" and 40") brake lines to use for replacing my plastic fuel lines. I'm following the pelican fuel line replacement how to. However i'd rather not use a 90 deg bend and increase the # of fitting in the system.
Can I just bend the brake lines using proper tooling? The auto part store sells one for around $30. With this significantly reduce the flow? Has anyone here followed the pelican how to? Is the 60" line long enough to feed through the tunnel and leave 2-3" at the firewall side for this 90 deg bend? Thanks |
