Its a bitch to remove, i had to do it twice. There is no really easy way to remove it. You need to pull the whole interior out, yeah everythng, carpet and seats and dash to get to it. It takes a good two hours just to get ur hands on it. Then its the bitch part to remove the fittings and one small bend in the fuel line, well forget it, its not good and these metal pipes do break easily.

IF you need it badly, i got a high pressure fuel feed line for our cars. You can have that and save yourself some heafty work. And this one is much easier to install and good to hole up even if you are gonna boost the motor.

id reccomend running your own lines under the car in 5/16ths or 3/8ths line...

There is only one feed line and the return line is the same as the carb feed line. Removing it is a bitch. Trust me on this one. I have done it twice and it takes a lot of work. And you have to be reallllllllllly careful taking it out. Thats why next year, im ditching this to get a custom one.

well, what i ended up doing was cuttin it with a hacksaw where it goes under the backseat, and just pulled it out from inside the car, then i just ran rubber hose from that to the fuel pump through the inside of the car, worked out pretty good, and it wasn't too big of a pain surprisingly
