Replacement alternative to feed and return plastic lines
Need some help, i am in the process of replacing my stock fuel pump with a racetronix and am a little skeptical of reusing the stock plastic hoses. I thought i heard a crack when removing the hose off the fuel tank. Cant see anything. Since gm discontinued the factory ones and i do not have the time to drop this tank again, I'm looking for a permanent solution. I modified a fuel assembly once on a neon and did a return line. I plan on passing this car onto my son so looking for a permanent fix. I see some have gone an fittings to a metal line than I'm assuming high pressure fuel lines. I know i cam clamp the one side on the fuel filter. Just looking to see how others have gone about this

These are the internal nylon lines for the pump.
