You can be the first to run E85 in the old Rx7!

Why would you want to use copper? Just get a box of fuel line from any performance parts store and a bender and go to town... its not as easy as it looks

Russel makes anodized fuel line. 30 bux for 25 feet on SummitRacing.com comes in 3 colors.



Oh, and its easy to bend.

Other than Asthetics what is the benefit to adding SS Braided lines? I am assuming they can tolerate more pressure (How much pressure is really needed per HP range?), and offer the option of a higher diameter hose allowing for more fuel (How big do you need your fuel lines to be? Wouldn't increasing the diameter of the hose force your pump to work harder?) I guess I am trying to see for a street, and occasional track car is it worth the investment? Do SS lines eliminate the worry of hoses rupturing from age or too much pressure? Is it just one more step to make the system more bullet proof? (Trust me I know there are plenty of people out there who do it cause it looks cool) Im not asking those people I want technical answers... Because I can see if your in a rally car or rock climber, maybe motor cross cycles etc.. but for street driving? or even drifting, scca etc won't normal every day high pressure fuel hoses work just fine?
