copper fuel lines GOOD or BAD

On that same note no one including his friends from Georgia has mentioned long time Fordbarner Jerry Grayson.He has supplied correct copper coated steel tubuing with correct fittings for years. I bought my first from him probably mid seventies and just last couple years a fuel line from pump to carb properly bent to correct shape. Lot easier than dealing with Mac's for the wrong stuff.

Mac's along with some other vendors sell tank to engine copper fuel lines. The fact that nobody here has slamed Mac's tell's me a lot of you are fine with properly installed copper.

I just pulled up the Macs website. Mac's ad writer either doesn't know the product, or Macs actually does sell copper for fuel lines. Either way, another reason to shop from suppliers who know their stuff.

If any of you guys are really serious about some "brake line and fitting" knowledge, mayby click on the FEDHILL link below and spend a few minutes finding-out just how well you do understand some of this valuable info, along with some acceptable brake-line practices. FEDHILL is a distributor of DOT-approved "Cunifer" brake line and fittings...the GOOD stuff. DD

Henry never used the stuff (copper fuel lines) Doesn't that tell you something?
No one seems to have touched on the down side of the heat transfer rate of copper used in fuel lines.People use it because it's easy to work with, not because it's the right thing to use.
