Haha thanks man! Well sadly there is a change of plans after rethinking the fuel pumps.... I need one large pump to have enough volume so I will be going with a aeromotive pro series pump. And yes I have a check valve just up stream of the surge tank, the factory check valves on the 044s seem restrictive and read on a Vett forum it actually improved flow considerably. The routing of the lines was overkill for sure but it looks bad *** 
I will also have a cooler inline just haven't decided on return or feed.
If I remember correctly you were the one that got me hooked on hard lines ... So thank you sir! Your hard line work is epic I hope when I'm done they look as nice as yours

I'm trying to break the 800 mark, basically I have built this car ground up in my garage. I just think it would be cool to say I built a 850+ car outta my garage

I am taking a **** ton of photos ( old habits die hard) and I will throw up a thread when I'm in the home stretch of the build. It makes it more interesting for the readers when thy can blow through a whole thread, start to finish in one sit with lots of pictures and little chatter.
I'm taking a entirely different route this go round as I'm essentially restoring a 144k 93 touring. It's not a back to original restore but it is a total year down and rebuild. I've got the car almost total stripped, minus the interior at this point. Body work is 85% done and I waiting on TCP global to deliver the remaining paint supplies before I start shooting primer. I've stock piled crap loads of parts and it will go quick once I get the paint done. Doing the entire job solo...

I actually routed it wrong :P and with too small a tube it needs to be at least 1/2" and go to a catch can:-/ lol sooooo I will be making it out of one line hopefully. If the 1/2" stainless tube gods are on my side for bending.

The fuel lines are beautiful. Great work. I have some 3/8" stainless here at work and I can flare ends but I'm too lazy. You're giving me some good motivation though.

The Hardlines take a lot of time and motivation... and beer. the flare ends have to he 37* flares to mate up with AN fittings just for you to keep that in mind. If you have those flares and the materials... its worth the end result.

Figure out electric water pump set up.
** find new half shaft for rear.... Anyone have one?
Finish interior.
Let's get thing thing rolling and breaking some adaptronic HP records!!!
