Installed but not run yet. My finish is a long way off. I have researched this unit extensively and look forward to favorable results. It seems that the users who are not as happy, are those using the fuel command center. I decided to run "hard' lines for my fuel supply and return and use an in-tank fuel pump to avoid some of the issues that others have complained about. Compared to a carburetor, reasonably priced and seems well engineered so far.

Bjorn:
I don't think there's any difference between steel and rubber fuel lines. They sell a kit that includes the flexible fuel lines, and they certainly would be easier to install! I believe the kit has an external in-line fuel pump as well. I wanted to run an in-tank pump as it is quieter, more efficient and no issues with pump mounting relative to fuel tank height. In-tank pumps push fuel, in-line pumps suck (so to speak). That was just my preference and, since I was installing a new tank anyway, just as easy.
