Default Fuel line?

Which would you prefer, aluminum fuel line along the frame with push lock at each end to tank and engine or push lock the entire length? This would include a return line all properly sized.

Push lock is a type fuel line that uses AN style fittings without the hassle of the braided line. Also known as twist tite, socket less, etc.

Anybody have any preferences?

Honestly I wouldn't use any of that. Hard line and steel braided are all heavy plus you get stabbed in your fingers by the wires making them up. I'm scared to you push loc on fuel because fire. Go light and do it right! Here us what I used

I was planning to use the stock hardlines and evap for return on my rails then changed my mind because I did like the way it looked. I used my efi fittings and installed them
on the fuel bucket and I'll be running braided line instead.
