Thanks for the reply.  I did not understand you when you said to install from
center line outboard. I thought we were talking about the lines that go fore
and aft from the gear box forward thru the tunnel under the spar to the switch
quadrant.

Yes we are. Start in the middle and work to either side.

Also I have had several suggestions to use 1/2 inch fuel
lines from the wing fittings to the fuel selector.  What are your thoughts on
this idea?

Probably a good idea, but it is more important to avoid machined 90 degree
fittings. If I had a choice between -6 tube with strait fittings and -8 with
90's, I'd take the -6. You can think of the system as a series of orifices, if
there is one choke point it doesn't really matter much what you do elsewhere.

Regards
Brent
