Default best way to extend OEM fuel lines???

i am relocating the gas tank. the fuel cell will use the OEM fuel pump. what would be the best way to extend the fuel lines from their current location to the new fuel pump location? there has to be some connections that i can buy to make it a plug and play type situation.

I believe you need 3/8 line. They also have fuel line quick connector adapters at autozone.
