    Default Fuel line

    Hey guys,

    In a bit of a pickle at the moment, is there any proportion of hard fuel line you must have underneath your car to pass the pits? I was going to use the hard stuff on the straighter bits and the rubber fuel hose on bendy bits? Is this okay? I don't have an engineer yet so I haven't really asked them.

    Thanks guys.

    Brad

    I agree with Cuzbro, you want as much hard line as possible, and it shouldn't be hard to bend it anyway.
    Seeing as you're running under the car, you should be able to get from the fuel tank/pump all the way to engine bay with hard line.

    Where does the factory one run? If it's not big enough, you could always run twin factory lines. May need a little bending to fit, but you could do that by hand.

    Cheers Steve,

    The aluminium pipe is okay to bend by hand, I may need to get a pipe bender to make it look alot neater.

    Thanks for clearing that up
