Just to clarify . These are the 2 short lines that supply the fuel from the pump to each head. |

use what the mfgr used.... a single wire braid, cloth covered hose.... (stratoflex) is a trade name.. has a whole variety of re-usable fittings.... even tho you'll have 30-50psi more or less, you'll need the durability of that type of hose... |

I installed a mechanical pressure gauge on the output of our fuel pump (8V71). At near govenor speeds we carry about 70 PSI. Hope this helps, Jack |
