P.S. I was just looking at your gallery...nice license plate!!

Yup, I replaced the rubber lines directly out of the fuel tank all the way up to where my hard lines had NO rot. It was between 4' to 5' of hose each for the feed and return. I bought 1/4" (I.D.) line because that's what was available. It worked, but it took some effort to get it over the nipple of the fuel tank and over the cut end of the hard fuel line. I would have bought 5/16" if they had it. (which is what the stock rubber hoses are)
If you look at the pictures in my link, the one pic is coming right out of the tank at the rear dif. and the other is where I cut the fuel lines up by the front driver side door.
Also, the fuel line I got from pepboys was rated for diesel, but I don't know how long it will hold up for WVO. I'd imagine it should be fine since it won't see much heat under the car.
Thanks for the compliment, but that was just some wishful photoshopping on my part.
Nothing else is photoshopped, I thought that would be cooler than just erasing out my actual plate number.
