Sniper- Fuel Line Plumbing

[DrRock]

Hello All,
I'm in the process of installing a Sniper on my 1985 FJ60 and have a question regarding the fuel line installation. I have purchased the kit from Mosely and will be using the fuel filter/regulator that requires only one line to go forward to the sniper with the return on the sniper blocked off. I see two options:

1. Run the rubber fuel line all the way forward from filter/regulator to the sniper inlet.
2. Run the soft line to the current hard line, then in the engine compartment pick up the hard line and run soft line to the Sniper.

I see pros and cons for each scenario so could use some guidance here.

Thanks in advance for the feedback!

On my 40, I ran as little soft line as possible. Used aluminum hard line with an fittings for as much as I could.
Basically any spot that may need a little flex like transitioning from the body section to frame and frame to engine.

Holley states fuel line must be 3/8” diameter. Stock fuel line is 5/16”. I ran the hose @FJ60Cam provided with the kit I purchased from him. No issues.

Awesome, thanks! Means I can remove a few more things underneath as well!
