Here you go http://www.***boat.com/image_center/data/500/161DCP_2371.JPG
This is my fuel lines going to and from my fuel filter

Turn your head to the right 90 degrees, this is my water going into the engine and (imagine an intake and water neck) water coming off the water neck to the t valve and to headers.

Two fuel lines mounted to the floor with stainless clamps.
Hope this helps. Its not terribly difficult to plumb with this line, but it takes some time. I hope you have a good set of tubing benders. If you plan on using flared fittings, don't buy a flaring tool from Lowes cause it ain't gonna work. You have to find someone with a hydraulic flaring tool. It some hard sh*t. Be patient, it takes time to get it right. Good luck

Kevin That looks great! I hope mine comes out as good!
My fittings don’t need to be flared. They are Swage-Lock and have a swaging feral design. So I am set there. I do need to get a tubing bender. My tube is annealed so it should bend pretty easily once I get a bender.
Thanks for the pictures! :)

Thanks for the pictures! :) Yes,
annealed is the only way to go with stainless tubing. Much easier to work with and much less chance of it cracking.

It goes through a heating and cooling process to soften it, makes it much easier to work with. We order it that way for all of our lines. You can easily promote cracking in the flare where you cannot see it when it is tightened up - bad deal with fuel.

I used aluminum tubing for my fuel lines, its real easy to work with. I never considered hard-lining the water hoses, but it looks great.
