'81 SC Hard Fuel Lines

As luck would have it, I swapped the tunnel lines (Len's), fuel pump, etc, and upon testing found that I have sprung a leak in the fuel feed hard line from the tunnel line to the engine bay. I spent a fair portion of my couch time last night looking for options on replacing both hard lines, but came up empty. What options are out there to replace this?

Lens should be able to help you with those lines too. In the case of my 81 I swapped out the hard lines with lines Len provided that basically how they were done in a 78-80 car. I did it to avoid using additional connector adapters, bottom line call Len and see what he thinks

I have a pair out of my 1982 that have been in my storage.

Shoot me a pm if you want to talk further.

You might try Len Cummins at len.cummings@verizon.net.

He is our "go to" guy for fuel lines. I used his lines on my 1971 911T coupe.

I determined it to be too risky to use the existing lines in my car. You need to determine: is this your lucky day.
