Just trying to keep you off it !

If it makes you feel any better, the 944 and 951 have totally different hose routing, and fewer hoses, but in original form are also malatovs.

Pricey but actually that's not too bad. I was seriously expecting over $1000 for them (this is how I go broke, expect to pay a lot then find out real price is expensive but cheaper than what I thought so I convince myself I'm getting a "discount" when I'm not because my ball park was way off in the first place).

Again, I appreciate the concern of all here of aged fuel lines, although this thread has gotten a little off topic of the vacuum line.
I have spent countless hours since last night reading various fuel line threads, some as far back as '04.
I still am undecided as to Gregs fuel line mock-ups vs Rogers kit., low budget is the key here.
that being said, I have been getting parts together for the other end of the 928. New brake pads & rotors, new inner & outer CV boot kits, new wheel bearings, and A/T filter and fluid change, also while in the air, I will be replacing the leaking power steering lines, and a engine oil & filter change.
After I get these repairs done, I will begin on the fuel lines.

It was stated that Gregs kit is roughly around $700...What does Rogers fuel line kit cost?

The kits i've used have a factory fuel line to join the rails, plus a roll of high-pressure SAE fuel line and clamps. Reuse the fittings. Something like $150.
Pros and cons.
