Just got done doing this to my 87. It's a good idea to do. I would also do the flex line from the fuel pump to the hardline as it almost ALWAYS rusts out at the 90* curve and maybe even the hardline to fuel filter. I used metric to AN adapters for the fuel filter for better flow. 90* on bottom and straight on top.

 

Here's a list of everything you would need if you did things the way I did. I'm not currently sure of the power steering lines, but I can check this weekend and see what I can dig up for sizes, threads, etc.

 

Hardline to Fuel Rail in order:

 

1. 5/16 to 6AN compression fitting for hardline

2. 6AN Straight Braided Hose Fitting

3. PTFE hose in 6AN Size

4. 6AN 90* Braided Hose Fitting

5. 6AN to M12x1.25 Adapter

6. Fuel Filter

7. 6AN to M12x1.25 Adapter

8. 6AN Straight Braided Hose Fitting

9. PTFE Hose in 6AN Size

10. 6AN 90* Braided Hose Fitting

11. 3/8 NPT to 6AN Adapter

1. (whatever the return line thread is) to 6AN Adapter

2. 6AN 90* Hose Barb

3. PTFE in 6AN Size clamped to barb and to return hardline

 

 

Fuel Rail Return Line With Braided Hose Fittings:
