You put a new in tank fuel pump in right? You should check fbodymotorsports.com. They have a fuel kit with all the fittings you need. Thats what I went with. We all also used the 4th stock power steering lines. They all worked fine, yet the hard part of the lines may need to be bent for clearance.

Yes, you need that 4th gen high pressure line. It also bends around the power steering pump properly.
