Fuel Line Routing

[1moretoy]

Hey all, I'm trying to figure out the best way to run my fuel line. I'm running -8AN (1/2") stainless braided PTFE. I also have US Cartool subframe connectors. Is there any issues running it along the outside rear frame rail to along the subframe connector to the front? This would be similar to the factory lines but braided instead of hard lines. The other option is to run it inboard but that puts it closer to the exhaust. Let me know your thoughts.

Thank you,

Should not be a problem at all. Factory path is perfect.
Here is a great article which shows the factory fuel line path with a return line.

Have you considered running a return line to the tank? It is easy to do if you repurpose the existing hardline as the return and use your braided line as your supply.
Run the braided line parallel and you will have an excellent system.

All the factory lines are gone and I'm running a returnless system. Being braided lines I wasn't sure if there was added concern if an accident happened side impact, and leaking fuel. Forgot to mention I'm also mini tubbed so there isn't a gap between the frame rail and inner fender to conceal it.

You know as simple as this is....I'm putting in EFI right now and I NEVER thought about using my 3/8 factory style line as the return. That's a great idea and gives me a nice run to mount my braided to and since there's no pressure on it I don't need to worry about leaks, AN is overkill. I think I'm gonna do this, thanks for this!!

A few photos of the EFI rubber fuel supply line (3/8" ID) routing alongside the factory steel 3/8" OD line repurposed as the return line.

Nice. I'm running braided line, but I'll be doing this for sure. Just gotta grab some different fittings now...
