Subject: RE:Headers and Fuel lines by jsup on 2008/2/3 2:47:45 Here's my final solution..... I kept the original fuel lines from the manifold down to where they make a 90 degree turn. I cut the solid line right at the point where it hit the rubber. I used a compression fitting on the metal pipe and connected to the flex stainless tubing. The tubing I got is expensive as hell. It was $120 for two pieces about 4.5 feet each. It's hydraulic line (which will tolerate gas) it has a teflon core wrapped in rubber with braided stainless on the outside. I had a 3/8 female compression fitting put on each side. I looped the flex tubing and came around the front of the frame where the control arms connect. There's a provision in the frame in front of the shock that the flex tube fit nicely in. I ran both flex tubings through this portion of frame. I removed the rear wheel well exposing everything under the blower motor. I ran the flex tubing under the blower motor behind the piece of frame that is slanted. Then to the original connections. On the fuel filter and the original connections I made up some solid tubing because the flex tubing could not bend hard enough. The hard tubing goes up at a 90* angle the flex tubing connects to that. Done. The secret is to use some flex tubing and remove the rear wheel well. If you want pics, let me know. |
