Question reguarding HOT FUEL LINES. With my new 3 inch X-pipe setup my pipes nearly touch the metal fuel lines under the car on the drivers side. I jacked the car in the air after about 3-4 minutes after its been off, and those metal fuel lines are HOT 
. At work today I bought the DEI EXTREME HEAT TAPE , and there wrap. Do you think after I wrap all those lines up near my exhaust, that it might help me out? I would hate to see how hot the gas is entering the engine. Im hoping this will lower the temps some. Any input would be great.

There are several (2 i think) little black clips screwed onto the car holding the fuel lines in place. Unscrew them and turn them over. This will take a little force, but don't worry, they'll go. Once you do this you have raised your fuel lines 3-4 inches. I did this and know several others who have as well.
