A length of "firm" tubing comes with the pump. The supplied length is fine. 
I used one for several years with a 1.8 Moki in a Midwest Cap 232. The tank 
was on the CG. The pressure was setup for the engine to run with the needle 
set at two turns open. It was necessary to tweek the idle a little. Once it 
was setup right it was not necessary to touch it ever again.
