I can't begin this section without re-iterating once again how AMAZING www.ANPLUMBING.com is. Get this: I measured ALL of my fuel lines incorrectly on the first round, called up Tom at AN Plumbing, told him my mistake and his response was this, "Hey Nate, don't worry about it. Send them back to me, i'll get them re-sized and shipped out to you ASAP....NO CHARGE!!!!" Enough said.
First, I prepped the areas that I was going to have exposed fuel line with 1 coat of Satin Black paint for the soul reason that I don't want to be spraying the fuel lines after install. These won't be areas seen all the time so I didn't spend much time on finishing the areas but at least they will be a uniform color that matches the interior. After the paint was dried enough, I assembled the fuel lines to the fuel selector using the "quarter turn past hand tight" rule and it was Just right. I also installed Delco seals inside the fitting for an extra measure of insurance. Leaky fittings are NOT an option. I then ran the lines down through the cabin and installed all the necessary bulkhead fittings. The fuel system is now 90% complete. Firewall aft is all that is left.
