PVC is very easy to join. Aluminum takes special expensive fittings
especially in the larger sizes.

That might do it. I'm not saying, of course, that 110LL and PVC don't mix

at
all, or that you would necessarily have problems with a PVC pipe imersed

in
110LL. However, I don't recall ever seeing that particular combination
recommended anywhere in any of my compatibility charts.

Just for gets -n- shiggles, here's what I'd do. Find a local industrial
supplier in your area that sells either Ingersoll-Rand, Lincoln, or Graco
diaphragm pumps. (They'll probably be either hydraulic or pneumatic

equipment
suppliers.) Tell them you are thinking about setting up a fuel transfer
system, and ask for a recomendation on the type of pipe material and pump

you
should use. Make sure you tell them that you're gonna pump 110LL, that

you
need a very lightweight system, BS, etc. They may have a few ideas.

BTW, was there any reason that an aluminum tube could not have been used?
