Hi everyone,
Looking to source some braided fuel line, where have people got it from before.
Looking for a full back to front line from tank all the way to the front to run underneath the car.
Thanks

I use either Merlin Motorsports or Torques UK on ebay.  Merlin is of course Goodridge and top quality, but comes at a price.  Torques UK is considerably cheaper, however i think the quality is excellent.

 

I would run a hard line under the car, with flexible braid at the ends.  Saves the chance of the braid coming loose and snagging on something, ripping your whole fuel system apart.

Demon Tweeks, Merlin Motorsport, local hydraulics supplier, ebay.....

 

I would question why though?  Solid line would be better and would require a lot less clips to hold it in place.  With braided I'd want to be having a P-clip every 200mm or so.

I would not run a braided fuel line full length, its liable to get torn off at some point, which could be a disaster. A copper or kunifer pipe is the way to go underneath with the braided to connect to the tank and carb.

  A soild metal pipe has nothing to snag on and will be a lot safer.

PM me, I can do copper or kunifer full length or braided with the rubber ends and clips any length.

I have goodridge hardline running the length of my race GTM project and then 2 bulkhead unions at each end. Braided under the car is a waste of money and not as safe. For a road car just stick with kunifer 1/4". Quality and tough.
