Ned, I have -6AN plumbed in my engine compartment of my car and it looks great.  It does take time to do, but I think it is well worth it.  Heat wise, I have had no problem with them standing up to the temperature.  The fittings that went right into the carbs came from Earls if I remember right.  If you would like a picture of my setup just let me know.
 
Hope this helps,
Brian

Anyone out there in VVland have experience with braided fuel lines on a 
Corvair? Looking for some stories about how it holds up with temperature.

I'm thinking about redoing my fuel lines on my 140. (Smitty, close you  eyes)
I have an electric fuel pump. I reversed and flipped the stock fuel lines, 
so that they all come together in the front center of the engine.  What I'm
thinking about doing is running a hard line along each frame rail  and then
braided hose to each of the carbs.

Another question, anyone ever put AN hose on 140 carbs? Is there an AN 
fitting that replaces the "big nut" at the carb inlet?

Any and all suggestions and opinions appreciated,

Ned
