Here's the plumbing in the engine bay, the fuel line goes through the gearbox cross member then up inside the wheel arch and along under the top of the wing to a 90 degree swept fitting then through the inner wing with a bulk head fitting, this keeps it all away from the headers. Note the insulation under the rad hose and the bracket holding it on the waterpump

Here's the carb end, it's a 600 Vac Sec with 750 float bowls, these were fiddly bends to make and Blue was getting frustrated!

Many thanks to Blue who came round and more or less did the plumbing with me being apprentice! Cutting the braided line cleanly was achieved by taping it then cutting it with a Dremel and cutoff wheel. And just for Ivor, here's all me Nats luggage!

One last pic showing the wiring for the fual sender (doesn't work as I think Oz gauge is different to US. Note the earth from the filler neck to the strap, it's a knock back at Drag Scrutineering and a good safety point.
