Hi, I was wondering if the fuel / brake lines for my Rallye are the same as a cutlass? Can I order ones for a '70 Cutlass? Also are they fairly easy to replace? (The reason I ask is I would have had to take the body off my GTO to change fuel lines.) Are they similar to a Camaro / Nova? I did replace the fuel / brake lines on a '69 Camaro with little problems.
Thanks for any & all answers. I welcome any advice.

Yes. The lines for a Cutlass with the same engine and equipment (ie, A/C or non-A/C, drum vs disk) are the same lines. All Olds A-body cars within a given year and with the same equipment use the same lines.

Thanks Joe. Do the lines run on the outside of the frame, or do they run through the frame at any point? I guess I will figure that out when I get the car home though. Thanks Again.

Inside the frame (for protection from rocks). The fuel lines run through the front crossmember. If you are thinking about installing pre-bent lines, be aware that the factory installed the lines on the frame before the body. You pretty much have to lift the body to install the full, one-piece pre-bent lines. Otherwise, you need to cut and splice or bend and unbend to get them in place.

Well crap, that's not what I wanted to hear. Sounds like too much work for me & probably too expensive to lift the body off just to replace lines......unless it needs to be replaced. Hopefully someone did it before me & don't need replacing. We will see. Thanks Again.
