LT1 swap fuel line question..
LT1 swap fuel line question..
My old engine was the 305 TBI. I am puting in the LT1. Do I need new fuel lines? I already got the new fuel pump, didn't know if I needed new lines because of the increase pressure or not.

I cut the TB end off my stock metal lines, flaired them slightly, and joined them with the stock LT1 fuel fittings with high pressure fuel injection hose, then used 2 hose clamps on each end.
