All,

Thanks for the input. I'm about to start working on it. I purchased some -3 braided stainless line and fittings to replace the plastic tubing. I already have the plastic line attached to the gauge and the dash is in place.

I really don't like the idea of the plastic line but I'm not excited about pulling the dash again. Also it looks like it might be a tight fit for the fittings behind the gauge because I have a heater box. (I live in Texas - don't know why I have a heate ).

If it's too tight, it seems there are a couple options:

(1) Swap the fuel gauge and the oil pressure gauge.
(2) Use the plastic line to connect to the gauge, and connect the plastic to the stainless line behind the dash and run the stainless line to the engine.

Any thoughts or comments?
