    not concours, go with a local source for Gates fuel line. make sure its fuel line and rated for "fuel". NAPA works. i have found a goldmine in the local heavy truck supply guys. i can get Baldwin oil, fuel and airfilters, cheap in bulk. and they like "small volume" orders like mine. heck i ordered 6 oil filters for the 308, paid wholesale and they shipped them UPS in 2 days to my door. i am going to have a new upper oil cooler line made for the 308 by the same local contacts. try the "ferrari parts thread" sticky at the top of this section for Boxer parts if you need show car stuff also. i hope to have one in the future myself :)

    thanks michael,

    i need almost all the lines and they seem to be in very obscure id's. i will try goodridge too. i have a friend at hendrick motorsports that is instructing me to use this wicked cool kevlar wraped line....some is priced between 15-20 dollars/ft...quite expensive.

    btw, i am now in charlotte so we should get together before long.

    peter
