I am about to start ordering fittings, but will wait your responses. This is the situation; I have the fuel tanks mounted, or rather mounted fitted and now are off. But now I must decide the plumbing. Ok shall I go with rubber or alum tubing. Rubber is easier but alum seems to be better for fuel, or is it?
I would like to hear some opinions about pro and cons, and whatever else you folks have discovered. Craig Nelson used metal and I like the way it looks. On the other hand with those slip on fittings it make the whole thing an easy afternoon fun job. No need to flare the tube and try to figure out the sizes and so on. I essentially have -8 and -6 pipe thread openings in the fuel tanks, and will carry mogas, I am not sure about the Suzuki on 100LL.
