I think you could do well with any compression fittings and high pressure fuel hoses. It ain't rocket science. Lots of cars use the stuff. JMHO... I'm also not...
Thanks for the responses! I'll certainly take a look at the lines before I head out across the Nevada and Utah deserts. This discussion of fuel lines has got...

Greg, Sorry, don't know about the fuel filter substitution, I've used only the OEM part. If you have any doubt, replace it. Takes all of about 15 minutes and...

Thanks Russ, that's good to know. I'll probably pick one up "just in case". An extra relay or two might also come in handy. I assume that the relays used are...
