    I used Nicopp lines on my Wildcat. These are easy to bend. I bought a 25 foot roll of 3/8 and 1/4 plus some stainless gravel guard for each size.

    I replaced the old 5/16 with an inline tube 3/8 a number of years ago. The hardest part of getting it out was the tube clamp on top of the rear spring towers. It was rusted, small and in a very obnoxious spot.
    I finally cut a small hole in the trunk, used a ratchet extension both removing and replacing, then welded up the hole again.
    If you have the body off frame, just break that little bugger loose. Trust me.

    Did you keep the part number for the inline tube 3/8 line?

    I looked up those nicopp hand bendable lines and it looks pretty sweet! I’m leaning toward using That for the 3/8” feed line and 1/4” return. I can use earls compression fittings on the ends to convert over to -6 AN fittings. As from the pump to carb I’m looking at using hotrod fuel lines ptfe coated/ braided in black with -AN fittings..
    As with the nicopp lines earls makes their own brand and multiple other car manufacturers such as volvo have been using this material for years.
