OK Neil,
I see in the Moss catalogue a "FUEL LINE, carb to carb.", That's
another of those "how come" things. It means the fuel feed has to go
from the firewall to the front carb and then from front to rear. I
wonder what the rationale was for that.
One could always cap the second pipe on the front carb and use the
earlier fuel lines & tee.
