Fuel lines and fittings
What are people using to run fuel lines down there cars
I’m going to be running 044 fuel pump
I’ve thought about running 6mm copper fuel lines down most of the car
Similar to standard but was looking at braided with fittings for the rest
What have you used for the fuel tank to pump as the tank is s push fitting and how to join the braided to the copper lines
Thanks

They look just what I’m looking for
My concern is the tank fitting is push on
I know this is supplying the pump so pressure will not be too high

Yeah, she did me a push on end and then dash fitting other end. Just give her a buzz and email some pics and she will sort it out for you.

I've used aeroquip AN6 hose from pump to fuel rail and back with all aeroquip fittings. Just ordered quit a few meters of hose and all fittings needed and made all the pipes up myself. On push on fitting is coming out of the tank as didn't fancy having a fitting welded on.
Mines all done in the stealth black hose and fittings from Torques. All very neat and looks the part.

I did my entire fuel system with aero quip. Even had the standard rail and fuel tank modded to dash fittings. I’m -8 supply and -6 return. Every thing came from torques. I find there very helpful and knowledgeable on the phone and it’s all fast delivery

I use these guys http://atecautotechnic.co.uk/en/
You can purchase the materials from them and make it up yourself if you are able to bend it, or you can give them you’re old ones or a template and they will make it up for you with adapters to fit.
I used the black polymer coated tubing and fittings to do mine, also done all the brake lines in stainless steel but needs a decent flaring to for the ends.

Yes mate I used their 8mm tube the external diameter was 10mm so not sure if it fits the original clips, it was their hardline fittings I used not sure if they are interchangeable with other brands.

Your right Just had a look on their web site and it’s not there! But if you look on the bottom of their web page and download the online catalogue and go to page 19 it’s on there mate.

Because I replaced the plastic return pipes with the hardline I preferred to leave the short piece of rubber pipe between the tank and the return pipe for a bit of flex, I wasn’t happy with having everything solid for vibration purposes, I also put another rubber hose a bit further up just in front of the fuel pump and filter cradle, I don’t think this would be a problem as the return is low pressure.
