So... I dropped the order for my lines and fittings tonight. Honestly I ended up just going with the AN lines. The difference in cost between PTFE line and AN line was actually very small. The fittings however.... The PTFE fittings were almost twice as expensive as the AN fittings. I was already dropping just over $400 (including rushed shipping) for what I got, switching to the teflon lines would have cost me easily $100 more. $400 is too much for new lines as it is, over $500 would be WAAAYYYY too much! lol.

Hopefully it doesn't smell too bad (compared to running a pig rich tune with a catless exhaust for several years) once it's all said and done, lol.

I looked around there but I wasn't really able to find what I needed in my (relatively) quick search. Thanks for the suggestion though!!


It looks like we will (hopefully) he having another go at my car this coming weekend Primary (attainable) goal this weekend will be to get me old fuel system/lines out, and the new one in. Hopefully we'll be able to get that done and move the engine into the car, with her first start up and drive around though.

The more the merrier!! Anybody that is in the Northern Va/DC area is welcome to pop in to have a look-see, help out, and or just chill (so long as you're not a jerk and/or creepy as shit, lol). Just give me a heads up and I can pass out directions
