Well, Chris, I'd suggest buying a tube flaring tool for about $20, buy soem
fittings and then you could make your own intermediary hardline pipe and put
everything together.  At the very least use the flaring tool even if you use
a high pressure rubber fuel line so that the hoseclamp will hold under
pressure.
