--- keep the lines away from the block to lessen the amount of heat soak into the fuel line and keep the fuel slightly cooler.

Nice build! I'm doing hard lines too, so I can personally appreciate the actual amount of time it takes to make them just right, good job!

if you haven't already ordered a check valve for the brake booster, I was wondering what to use too, until I came across Mannykillers build thread. Here's the link http://www.summitracing.com/parts/sum-g1465 I ordered one but haven't installed it yet, nice looking piece.

Awesome build thread! Love seeing that you're local as well, cool to see some FD's in the Cities. Car looks like it is well taken care of and your car and engine will be in excellent shape when they're completed. Good luck!

This looks like it's going to get good, soon...
The fuel line lay out is something I have not yet seen before. I'll be interested in seeing the final install. Also can I get some more pics of the exterior? It looks awesome! What kind of rear fender flares are those, tire spec etc???

I'll be checking in. I have a car I'm working on myself. I'm holding off on a build thread until after i get the paint laid out in the next few weeks.

thanks man! yeah its about to go nuts here soon im getting a lot of the parts in that i have been waiting for and i am pulling the motor to reshin it up a bit with new seals and new studs.

The Rears currently on the car are shine auto burn out flares, the flares that are going to be goin on the car are Pettit Racing rear Flares my plan is to run 18x12 rears with 345's mounted on them, the fronts are going to be 18x9.5/10 running between 285 and 315 if i can find the correct offset with the RPF1 wheels, I have seen people with the burnout front flares running some wide fronts but dont know how big i can go really. The Rear wheels i am senting out for a wheel fab company to add two inchs to the barrel. my plan is to get as much of the power i am going to be making to the ground, and still be able to take it to the track and have fun in the corners.

I will try and get her out of the garage and cleaned up a bit for some pictures, I have some on my profile on here from back in the day, the body hasnt changed much since then.

She isnt pretty yet but she is coming along, i have tried to make her as equal length as possible all while trying to battle this giant turbo into its resting place. up next finish up the welds locate the best spots for the wastegates and install wastegate runners and if money permits send this all off to Turblown/Turbosource for some fancy pantsy heat shielding. If anyone is serious about heat control check them out they are second to none!

Some nice fab work going into this build.

I love the hardline work but do not understand the routing justification.

IMO, you are better off adding a fuel cooler and not worrying about the fuel heat soak from the engine. The bulk of the heat will be coming from 3 fuel pumps not the radiant heat of the motor.

Why did you remove the stock check valves from the twin 044's? I would suggest installing one in the system if you have not done so already.. It will help the car to start faster.



Did I mention I love the hardlines?!
