Running fuel lines how do you run yours !!!!!!!

Post by autofetish »

The main fuel line feed and return.



Do you go blue and outside of chassis leg

^^^risk of damage from something kicked up by front wheel in arch^^^


Do you go red and inside of chassis leg

^^^ risk of heat from manifold its a tight space ^^^


Seen both ways done on some lovely cars at the nats

pros and cons thoughts ??????????

Mine is similar to the 'Blue' option

Yep mainly Blue route, use the drop on the inner sill panel to shroud and attach the hose clips, braided hose can get peppered by all sorts of debris from the road and be okay so don't fret it too much ;)

There is inner wheel arch panel with rubber trim that should go on the inner wheel arch to protect the door hinges and fire wall from debris

These are them

Mine runs in the trunk to a bulkhead fitting above the axle, then down inside the chassis to the horizontal rail where it crosses over it to the outside. Along then through the hole where the torque bar used to be and up the to the reg mounted on the bulkhead.
No-one will believe you...
