Upgrading Fuel Line Well, I've been battling a fuel leak for quite a while now. It's coming from the quick-disconnect side of my filter. I thought it was the filter before, so I replaced it. It was fine for a while, but started leaking again. So, I'm thinking the part of the line that goes into the filter is rotted. I haven't had a chance to look at it yet. But, I figure, I'll just replace all the lines with braided stainless lines (from the tank to the fuel rail), and put in a different style filter, that just threads in on both sides, so I won't have to worry about the stupid quick-disconnect anyways. Plus, I was thinking the better lines would be good if I decide to tune my new motor for E85. So, my question is, what size of line (width and length), and what size/kind of fittings and adapters am I going to need to do this? It seems like it should be relatively simple, I'm just not sure what all sizes I will need.

I don't really mind the fuel smell. I just want a line that has the least chance of leaking, with good durability. And, what sizes of line and adapters I would need.
