Have tried to search but I can't seem to find the information I require, it's for a 1973 Baywindow

what size are the following, what is made from and where can I get it from.

Numbers 13, 17, 24

I also need number 15A

Where should I run pipe number 9 to as I will be running Dellorto twin carbs

What size pipe should I run from the tank outlet to the fuel pump, and then is it the same size to the carbs, the carbs are 36' dellortos, one has a twin inlet banjo, one has a single inlet.
 
some bits from JK or VW heritage.......think the 13 bit is 7mm pipe - depending on how original you want it ....I have seen it in 7mm id hose all the way to the filler neck

17 is rubber hose 7mm

24 is 5.5mm [i think] fuel pipe [sure that's what I used...or maybe it was 5mm id?]

this is for a breather as u probably know - in theory it should be t'd and sent to both filter tops...again I have seen it just going to one...as in fact most people attach the breather to just one - really it should goto both.

My suggestion is from tank goto a fuel solenoid from the fuel solenoid your pump, from there to your left carb [as u look at the engine from rear!] and then onto the other.

What I strongly suggest is from your pump go via a fuel regulator again memory shot to bits but think it's around 2.5 that the dells like.......I looked into a return from the rhs back to the tank but it's too tricky imho.
sorry back to your point so from fuel pump to carb use adapter to go from 5.5 to 8mm http://www.cbsonline.co.uk/brass-reducing-joiner-8mm-to-6mm--bred86-1809-p.asp" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; or insert the fuel reg in the line before the dells...........

clear as mud?
