There are hoops and tabs in the drivers side upper corner space to hold the fuel lines-run the fishing tool through these.
Insert new fuel lines through the front holes and tape to the fishing tool under the dash, after taping the open ends. Pull these through.
Almost done! Proceed to grommet frustrationl! Push the grommets in place. For me-I could not get them into the oversize holes and finally had to grind them down a bit.
Good luck with it!

Thanks a lot for the advice and taking the time to respond. I have been building this up for years in my head and now it's time to do it - so I psyched myself out. Were your old lines still in? Len was saying something like using weed-eater line through the old lines then trough the new, tie both ends and feed it through?
Also, how are you going from the 10mm return line to the CIS return on the fuel distributor? Did Len make this line for you? He's been really busy it seems and has stuff all over like I said - I just want to get this done as it's been on my shoulders for awhile.
