Fuel Line Question

[JPS]

Hey guys,
I have an "old school" setup with stock fuel tank, fuel pump on the block, and then up to the carb. The stock hard line isn't allowing me enough room to clear the headers and get more room to help with heat issues. Just looking for advice and options such as running nylon or another type of line?

Stay with metal lines in the engine bay, reroute if you need to

Get some of that heat reflecting sleeving and maybe wrap the header closest to the fuel line
