CONNECTING FUEL LINES

OK so im buying a 1988 monte carlo SS with a 383 stroker. And it needs the fuel lines connected. How hard is it to do? and how much would a shop charge me to do it? Please let me know. And I know its about a monte carlo not a camaro. Im still a Third gen camaro owner so who cares..

It is easy enough to do but to get any real information we need to know the state of the current fuel lines / pump or lack thereof.

If it's a carb'ed engine all you need is some rubber fuel hose and some gear clamps, and a straight head screwdriver to tighten clamps.
