Default Who has changed thier ugly tin foil wrapped fuel lines????

What options are out there ? I am about to put on a smoothed set of valve covers and relocate the coil packs and those hideous stock lines are going to stick out like a sore thumb lol!

I would like to know what options on Fuel rails as well. Looking do do a set of anodized rails since they look so nice, I have a 6.0 in my car with H/C/I so I never have really looked into any aftermarket rails.

Any info or pics are greatly appreciated. Thanks and have a great night!

A lot of guys say to use the Corvette lines from the early C5's since they have the return line. They got the braided lines on them from the factory. I'm gonna keep an eye on this because i put covers on mine and want to do the same. The aftermarket rails, although nice looking, will doubtfully work with the covers

I wish I had some pics, but I have braided steel lines, and i deleted the EVAP. I think it looks really clean.

Here's what I did. Pieced together my own kit of fuel lines and rails. Was about half the price of a complete kit.

Here's engine out of car


In car



I switched up my valve covers now though. I have a set of holley ones that I will be smoothing and powdercoating.
