I heard someone on here makes fuel lines for a 3800sc swap?

Not aware of that..
The simplest way is to buy #6AN Russell SS braided hose, measure. cut and install the proper fittings on each end. As for ready made fuel lines, I believe that Pontiac Trans Sport fuel lines can be adapted but those would be over 20 years old at this point. With a bit of reading its not hard to make fuel lines or you could go to a NAPA store (or a hose shop) tell them what you need and they will make them for you.

My local NAPA store doesn't make fuel lines or even have fuel injector hose. Parts Source did tho.

Is the 84 4 cylinder fuel filter too restrictive for the 3800?

Biology says there are coded genetic signals in every cell, but we KNOW that no intelligence created life.

AFAIK, the 2.5L uses the same fuel filter as the 2.8L so it should work with the 3800 swap.
