Fuel Line Upgrade

petnatcar submitted a new resource:

FUEL LINE UPGRADE - FUEL LINES

I feel a certain degree of safety now and am less likely to worry about the car catching on fire.
Knock on wood.

AN 6 for the Fuel Lines.
I have a description of the conversion with photos but don't know how to attach a JPEG on this site.

I made this upgrade on my vintage racer years ago for my tri-carb 2" SU HD8 induction system.

Will send you an email. Dougie - Is that a pressure gauge in the photo? Can you tell me where you got it?

I did too dougie, and I think anyone concerned with safety would also use this approach.
