Fuel line routing?
A few years back I went to a carbed l31, the car originally had a v6 and I was curious as to how I can route the fuel line better. Right now iv got rubber fuel line going from the driver side original metal line, acrossed the motor to the passenger side to the carb. How are you guys routing these lines because to me this looks bad and seems to be dangerous

You have a few options
1) Bend new alum/steel lines and flare the ends
2) All new AN6 flexible lines
3) cobbled up mess of hardline and clamped on rubber splices
1) inexpensive, take a long time to do it right with the proper benders/mounts
2) Most expensive
3) Cheap and easy on all counts

You could splice the new metal line anywhere you want.
