lol i have those lazy moments too, but normally if non lazy means alot cheaper it wins out. as far as bending the tubing i know the feeling, i didnt used to be able to do it at all those stupid benders are junk, until i just starting using my hands or those springs that you put over and then use your hands, now its no problem at all for me.

I would try and use hardlines, I dont trust having long sections of rubber hose for fuel lines.

well i probably wouldnt go with rubber, i'll probably go with steel braided lines from the tank to the firewall, then stainless steel braided lines inside the engine compartment for aesthetics. rubber is junk for fuel, i dont know why anyone would use it. at my work, all we use for fuel lines is the steel braided lines and they work just fine.

You can goto Auto Zone or Advanced and they have a pipe bender aswell as lines.I made lines for a tranny intercooler for my 79' camaro. It comes in handy for pipe bending. It makes smooth bends rather than a kinked bend.

hope this helped.
