EVENING,

Iv decided not to get the RA ready for 2009 as there is still far to much to do on the car, So am gona strip the engine bay down and clean the bay up and sort alot of the wiring out. I also want to remove the fuel tank and get a decent fuel cell in the boot. I also want to run the brake pipes in stainless steel.

Has anyone got any info on size of fuel lines i need to get. I know the brake lines are 1/4".

any pics or help would be nice.

Thanks

if your looking to replace your fuel lines etc it may be worth speaking to alyn at as performance/trading.

i'm sure i'm using 8mm lines on mine but not sure if thats the standard size

would there be any harm in doing fuel lines 6mm hard stainless pipe as i can basically get free fitting and all the necessary tools offshore. And do most fuel line join using NPT or BSP type connectors?
