Jeez Greg, sounds like you've fallen for the guy. When's the civil union?

Just looking for a cost comparison...

Rog has a kit for the fuel lines $125ish..(with hose clamps)

I can have them rebuilt locally (local 928 owner) for less than that..(has those crimped fitted collars on the hoses 480psi fuel hose)...been tested on the track for more than 2 years now..

Just looking for a ballpark cost...

That 3lb extinguisher most keep in their car would demonstrate what "bring a knife to a gun fight" really means in that kind of situation.

Way, way more than that, think maybe a grand for the fuel lines and trans cooler lines.
I have not done a invoice on the 3 cars we are putting them on, but it is going to be expensive.

Sorry Tom, my comment wasn't directed at you, just a general thought for people who don't put much importance in replacing them at all.

The fuel lines on my 81 were replaced / rebuilt by me using NHRA certified high pressure / methanol safe fuel line Tim Murphy had on hand.
