I'm planning to convert my 9A from carb to FI and want to use the Airflow Performance pump and filter.
Vans sells a kit of parts for $95 ("7/7A F.I. BRACKET KIT") that makes a "doghouse" forward of the fuel selector box. The pump and filter go inside the doghouse, next to each other.
There are a couple small fuel lines to make, but my question involves the line that goes forward to the firewall.
In the Vans design, the fuel pump output is aft, so the line must curve 180 degrees down, under the pump, and then run all the way forward, then up and right to where the firewall fitting is.
This seems like a long line, with a bunch of bends in it. My bending skills must be sub-par as I feel like I could never make this line.
Have others used the Vans kit and run a single long fuel line like this?
