    In tank fuel hose

    Where can I buy the high pressure fuel line that is designed to be used in the gas tank?

    Thanks but Napa only sells it in 1 ft. sections. I'm looking for a place that sells it by the foot. I'd like to get a 3 ft. section.

    Checked with my local Napa. They don't have the submersible in-tank fuel hose. Anywhere place online that has it on a reel?

    x2 the fuel injection hose from oreillys is fine to use. They sell it by the foot.

    I've never understood the whole submersible hose thing, if regular EFI hose can handle constant fuel on the inside, why not the outside?

    No they are different. The in tank hose will not go crappy after use. The inside and out side are the same material.
    Down fall it's spendy, and only in 1ft lengths.
    The normal efi hose can turn gooy and can swell. Down fall not really designed for intake use. But it's cheap.

    Now if it rupture inside the tank no harm no fal unless u lean out and burn an engine up. Causing a back fire that catches the truck on fire burning it to ground. On the dyno catching the building on fire burning it to ground. Just a possibility.

    Simply the best turbo kit for late model GM trucks.
