So I'm trying to find good fuel line for the new engine project in my Mk 3 and the SAE 30R9 hose is hard to find. Finally found if at the local chain auto parts store and they want $7 a foot!
I'm starting to think the Blue stuff from Spruce at $1 a foot is looking pretty damn good.
Any suggestions?

I would be willing to bet a dollar or two that the parts store was trying to sell you
A fuel line for fuel injection, that's about the right price for it.
Any napa or other parts store sells a good 1/4 in fuel line for about a buck and a quarter a foot.
Just bought 3 ft. For my 701 at O'reileys This morning , cost $4.39

Dennis, Kolbers:
We quit using UL plastic fuel line many, many years ago. To me, it is an
engine failure or fire fixing to happen. Very unreliable unless changed our
religiously at frequent intervals.
I use Gates premium fuel line, the black neoprene stuff. Have had nothing
but good luck with it. It will get a few tale tell cracks, usually around
the clamp, to let you know it probably needs changing. Never heard of this
fuel line failing, unless it was not Gates premium fuel line.
My opinion only, based on over 3,200.0 flight hours on my MKIII.

Thanks a ton Larry, I just bought 25 ft for $39 on eBay, I was hung up on sae30r9 rating and it is injection line but extreamly flexible and rated highly for ethenol. If it wasn't so pricey I would have used it. I Used to run sae30r7 and r6 but that stuff won't stand up to ethenol, it stiffens up after a few years.
I hope the Gates Barricade is as flexible as the 30R9 stuff!
Will report my findings when it arrives.

Make sure it's not rated for ethanol.

Damn,
Just now went back to Larry's link to the fuel line and realized it was $7 cheaper than I paid. I do this stuff on my phone and didn't see the price listed the first time I looked at it. Oh well, still pretty affordable.

It might be worth reading the 4-page brochure, found here:
http://images.oreillyauto.com/parts/img/documents/gat/gatesbarricade4page.pdf
Note that it is NOT rated for submersion in gasoline, so don't use it to put a line down into the tank. It also isn't as kink resistant as others, but still looks pretty darned flexible.
