Ok, so where is a good place to get braided line besides Summit or would they have the best price around?

Also, how do I connect the braided lines to my fuel tank/what kind of fittings?

I have the motor in finally but need to take care of the wiring as well as the fuel delivery. Can I use any of my existing lines for return or vent? They seem to be the same size as stock GN feed line.

BTW I have an 84 Olds Cutlass with an 87 GN engine and fuel tank from a GN.

{You probably dont need braided line. Stock replacement should }{be fine.

{The fuel sender has 3 tubes. Send, return, vent.
They are connected by rubber fuel line to the steel lines via:
hose clamps}

{should be ok, I would check the inside dia. of the lines to be sure
you would be getting proper fuel delivery}

{Nice}

Hmmm..... I guess another question would be of those of you who have done this swap into a G-body did you use the Factory lines from the na car?
I know one of the lines will need to be moved as I don't like the idea of it running so close to the downpipe but think there is any problem with it size wise?
