I have searched for these quite a while, the two (supply and return) fuel lines about three feet in length that connect to the fuel distributor. Anyone replaced these and most important where did you get them?
Mine are very cracked (at least the outer covering). Thanks in advance.

Check the yellow pages for a hydraulic shop near you. They should be able to fab up some SS lines at a reasonable price, or even rubber ones.

The outer rubber sleeve is just to protect the inner tubing. Just an idea...you could probably fabricate cheap replacements using off-the-shelf small diameter rubber or silicone hose by cutting them longitudinally and slipping over the inner tube (similar to how those plastic wiring harness protectors work).

Heat shrink tubing works well...
