    Yesterday i replaced my fuel filter. i ran into a slight issue. the fuel line was rusted to the filter and i bent it while trying to break it loose. so i made a couple trips to orielly's and after trying to flare the line and that not working i ended up just clamping a rubber hose over it for now. It seems to be doing fine but i was thinking about putting on a braided line. Does anyone know what all pieces i would need to do this?

    Our fuel lines will see 40-60 psi. If you want, cut another length of fuel line off a car at the junkyard and use a brake union fitting or swedgelock to connect the lines
