Default running fuel and brake tubes on 69 stang

Guys I'm helping my friend with his 69 mustang coupe. We just finished putting in Maier subframe connectors and pan hard rod. These changes are causing us to also change the routing of the fuel and brake lines under the car. Having not worked on a mustang before, I thought I'd ask for ideas on how to best go about this.

My thoughts were to simply run the lines against the floor to the inside of the subframe connectors. I'd make and weld brackets to the car so that they are secured but otherwise they'd be just under the floor and not really following a path like they do on my car.

I was also thinking we would use bulkhead fittings in order to get the tubes to pass through the front subframe since the fuel line needs to run inside the fender to reach the front of the engine. Does anyone know of bulkhead fittings long enough to fit through the subframe? The engine is a stock engine with factory fuel pump and a carb which is why we're going all the way to the front.

Any other suggestions or ideas for completing this on a Mustang?

Thanks
