Next up was the fuel lines. Ended up going with braided stainless hoses for the fuel line and the line that allows the engine to scavenge the charcoal canister fumes. The 5/8 line that allows the tank to vent for fueling was nowhere to be found. I tried to find the nylon hose from Dorman, but they said it was on backorder for at least 3 months. Ended up using a push connect hose so I could use the stock fittings. It's just a fat hose and I don't like it but didn't have much of an option.
