now you see why i offer the pre-done kits. over time i dont even want to think about how much i persoanly have wasted on fittings that i *thought* i needed, cant use, whatever....

not saying anything about you Dave, but the people that complain (you didnt) the most about the entire system price for something like you are trying to put together are always the ones who also come back and say... "DAMN! i should have just had you make everything for me... it would have saved me a month of figuring it out and $200 (or whatever they wasted) on the whole thing"...
I hear that. My first post in reguards to my mismount was me jut swaking up and realizing that i am not as close to done as I thought. But after looking at It shouldn't be that big of a deal to move it. I might end up having to buy maybe one or two more fittings and I was smart enough tobuy more hose than I needed so I still have about 6' left. I guess it's no big deal. I just hate it when I am not right.

I still could use soem more clarification on the exact identification of the feed/return lines. I will use Bobbys advice but since I have already removed the hardlines it's hard to tell which was which.

Dave,



I'm almost positive the answer is in one of my threads as I asked the same thing.. along with the 6 inch from firewall thing..(Sorry, I didn't think to even bring it up..) Unfortunately searching posts with my name and fuel anywhere in the criteria will land you half the fuggin 3rd gen section LOL.. I'll keep looking.

Oh, and FYI:



Eric (Cheatham) has been running the FPR on the firewall for like 5 years and never got hassled about it and he drag races all the time. Could be different elsewhere, just thought I'd share.

You can see it between the uim and firewall. I've never been hassled about it being there. I don't think they're very strict to us slow imports.

Yeah, I wanted it to be as clean as possible under the hood so I routed the passenger side brake line along the rear of the engine subframe and up and under the brake booster. It's very hard to see.
