Default fuel line/injector ???

I was adding some windsheild washer fluid to the stang today and happened to notice that my car has chrome/polished fuel lines.

were these a stock part or are these stainless lines?

also, the orange topped injectors are the stock #19 (gph or lph, can never remember) injectors right

Yes, the injectors are the stock 19lbs injectors but no the fuel lines are not stock like that. They may be a steel braided sleeve over the fuel line. That is always a cheap upgrade.
Can't believe you never noticed a shiny line like that though. You should look around at things more.

its not a braided cover, its a metal fuel line, only with a bit of shine, I'll have to grab a pic tomorrow or when I get a chance...

I noticed it once before but didnt think anything of it.... I amrarely under the hood (knocks on wood)

The fuel rails themselves are a chrome platemetal line of some sort if that is what you are talking about.
