I have a pair that Vic sent me when I first bought the car that are in very good shape and will replace nicely. I'll see what I can come up with.<br />I'll take another look at the fuel line.

Although, they are about 80 bucks a pop. (I built my own-Honestly that was more fun than getting a package in the mail :) )<br />But, in installing mine I didn't quite get my jig built correct and the captive nuts that the firewall mount to on the engine side are both off by maybe 1/4". It's not the end of the world, but lesson learned is replace them with the tub on the chassis so you know everything lines up.<br /><br />That said, I don't think the fuel line is short. AFAIK, it doesn't route through the outrigger, instead come up between the tub and the outrigger against the chassis, through that little open space the three make.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05339851655689638702noreply@blogger.com
