New Pics!

Hey guys,

I'm concerned with the slope of the feed line, specifically where it curves by the A/C condensor to the turbo - I think it might be "too sharp".

Ideas/Suggestions .. Thanks

I don't think it's a problem. correct me if I'm wrong But I believe I'm sure. It's pressure so it's cool

Yes, the feed line does have pressure, if it is hooked up to the oil "pressure" sender, which I believe is what he used for his oil feed source. Personally I routed mine under the engine, but that should work fine.

Yes its routed from there, but now I'm wondering if its smart to have the line on the valve cover ... hmmmm

 

SS braided line is some nasty stuff if left untamed it can work like a saw. This is especially bad for powder coated aluminum valve covers. I have mine zip tied in a couple places so it won't saw threw stuff.

hummm, it will work fine because the line is pressurized, but it's kinda fugly having it over the motor like that, try running it around the other side.

 

If you hit a bump or soemthing the valve cover and hood may sandwhich it and kink it. I would (and did) route it around the valve cover

 

or try running it around by the tbelt, but it looks as if it might not be long enough.

 

Fred,

I told you this already, I think. Route it from the tranny side...it's easier and you'll have a better angle to mount them.

he's to busy checking out other guys hahah LOL J/K man

 

The braided lines do very BAD things to whatever they come in contact with.
We routed rachels around over the trans, and put a piece of slit rubber hose over it to prevent rubbing damage.
like this:

 

damn. looks like you bought every little nic nac brand new or something. kleen!


OT: how come ur block is so clean compared the pics of when ur block just got finished being assembled? is it painted?


EDIT: yea, you should route the oil line on the tranny side. if you leave it as is, it'll start scuffing up your valve cover and watever else its rubbing up against.

 

as long as the oil feen line is not kinked your ready to go dude !
this one look pretty damn good to me, no prob's here

even the damm coolant over flow bracket and bolt!!!

 

I had mine runnin on the tranny side, no sharp bends, so it never gave me any problems. Also, it wasn't really coming in contact with anything, so nothing got chewed up.

 

mmm...shiney. Bling Bling is definetly the way to go..haha.

 

Stan is correct, tranny side is nice. Could even use a 45 going into center section for a little easier connection.

 

I fixed the feed line, look at new pics above!

 

Bravo bravo(hand clap hand clap) Much better.

 

I like the new routing much better
