I have a new electric fuel pump ordered, and my existing line will need to be replaced. In the past I have used steel line with double flared ends.
Bending it up has been a challenge because I am fussy. I like nice even straight runs. I get a little better at it each time though.
The steel 3/8" diameter stuff is good and rigid. which is a virtue in many ways. But it's stiffness makes it hard to bend.
I am thinking about whether to use that aluminum line because it's not as hard to bend. Or maybe some of that easy bend stuff.
Any ideas?

I've got a couple of different brake tubin' benders, that if 1 won't make the bend I want, the other will,....
