On a sapph cossie you need 10 meteres to be safe, you have to take all the wee bends and strange routes into account.

i used 10M but got a fuel cell in the boot. bit under 3m each for feed and return through car, then about 1.5m for fuel rail to fpr and back to bulkhead fittings
then 1.5. for breather into roof, and 1m for filler vent

I'm assuming he just meant to replace the oe lines, not a swirl pot/incar tanks setup ?

If not 10 metres is about right

Just found this post again, yes just to replace the feed from the pump to the rail and back to the tank. Cheers!
