All necessary clunks and fuel lines are supplied with the kit. I used the supplied Viton fuel lines inside the tanks and used Tygon lines for the entire system.
at this time i skipped installing a smoke system therefore not used the 4th tank.


This is before applying safety wire to all lines.
With the clunk line that long how is it going to get to the top of the tank? It needs to be shortened to the straight length minus 5mm

Though personally I would alway use a hi flow felt clunk in tanks like that.
