Bolt-In Braided Fuel Lines?

I am planning on taking the top end of the motor off for a cam install in the spring and want to take care of a few other things while I am at it. One being the addition of some nicer looking fuel lines. Anyone know where I can purchase a set? Maybe with some nice anodized fittings? Thanks

For a stock TPI? Do you want to change the factory hard fuel lines or the fuel rails where the injectors are?

You are probably going to have to make up a pair of fuel lines from braided hose. No biggie. As for the fittings, one of the major companies, I think Earl's makes some fittings that attach to the stock hard lines down on the frame. Then you can run braided from there. As for the fittings into the stock logs, I dunno, I could pull my old stockers out of storage and see if I have a fitting that will fit, then repost what it is. Or maybe someone around here already knows. Hope this is helpful...

I am doing this right now in fact. I think TPI looks sick polished. I cut the hard lines off of the rails and bought 6AN fittings. You will need a tap to put threads on the rail so the 6AN bulkhead can mount to the rail and then a 6AN filling and some hose. I used a 90 deg. AN on the front to help clearance and a straight AN fitting on the return at the regulator base.
Parts Needed:
90 deg 6AN x1
0 deg 6AN x1
6AN bulkhead fitting x2
