Evening gentlemen.

Last time round when i plumbed in my v6 it worked but it looked so much of a bodge job :(

How to people go about plumbing them up etc

Pics as many as possible would be greatly apprecieted.

Even a diagram of what goes where?

Feed from tank to pump, pump to filter, filter to fuel rail.
I did mine in braided, wish i used polished tubing tho.

Not the best pic as it's while i was painting the floor, but you get the idea.

I don't understand how you can make a bodge job of fuel lines, just buy new pipework and route it neatly.

SPi tank with uprated fuel pump is the neatest solution and can use the original sender unit.
GTE/GSi senders are hard to find now and a cluttered setup imo.

Use a later tank with an internal pump for neatness. Otherwise try to get a gte or gsi fuel pump cradle and bolt it to the chassis rail
use Corsa or later gm blue fuel pipe as its a neater way to plumb it in
