n20 they went on perfect! However a side bar or word of caution. When putting the adapters on the lines at the bottom of the car be ready for a headache installing them. Since the lines are so old they have buildup and won't slide on at all. I had to take a dremel and polish them and put a dab of oil for mine to slide on. Took me all of 3 hrs doing that but the tops went on in seconds. Since I'm a 93 I had to order -6 an 90 elbows because my fuel lines are located up in the front of the intake vs the back and I couldn't put my STB back on....well I did but had to bend the steel lines temporarily. 
I'll post pics once the elbows arrive.

I needed 8ft exactly and I'm glad I ordered 8ft as well. But now that I ordered those -an elbow's I probably could route them the other way vs running exactly in place of the stk lines which I have them doing now. Only reason I haven't is because of the delteq sitting on that valve cover plus I'm run a braided line from the shrader valve as well for my AFPR. Too much all in one spot.
Thanks again.
