TYPE III....converting to EFI.....how difficult is it to put a second fuel line through the sub frame for return fuel to tank?

I did my Bug in Rubber hose 5/16 from Pirtek its been in there for 5 years or more no problems

I actually put 2 lines in same size one for feed and one for return

Hi VW 54....Thanks...So they fed through the subframe no problems?

yeah it goods if you can put the car on a hoist and see down the tunnel from the front inspect hole

I also ran two steel braided lines like vw54 and used cable ties to hold them out of the way of the shift rod. Hopefully they will stay there and if you use rubber hose, you don't want them to rub on anything.

We ran 2 x 8mm aluminium lines up through the tunnel on my beetle. Sourced it from summit racing in the US. Just be careful not to kink it.
