Not Sure QLD Tpt will like you running SS as a fuel line.
from memory, it has to be either heavy wall copper or steel not SS

Is it worth paying extra (60% more or $12 extra) to run SS fuel line (5/16") in a Mini? |

not really, but $12 isn't much... but maybe it'll be hard to bend? |

Forty years out of standard steel tube isn't a bad outcome in my view... Is S/S more brittle than steel when vibration is involved? |

I have had a few vehicles with plastic fuel line, so I doubt that S/S would be a problem. But I would go with steel pipe.

May find they have had to fit SS ( not sure why) to get compliance on their Kit vehicles |
