I'm not completely convinced its size will be adequate, but it will do for ground running. If I had a view of the engine from the top you would be able to see the L attached to the redrive plate which is where the oil supply line is secured. The bigger concern is the the fuel line in two places. the first being the distance between the plug side of the engine and the primary injectors.l The second is the snake between the primary injectors and the secondary injectors. I had always intended for the fuel lines which span the gap from the engine to the firewall to be rubber. Though, as you can see from the pics I posted I had thought about running a long piece of tubing from the end of the secondary injectors to the firewall. Of course after seeing the extended length of unsupported tubing common sense prevailed. However, I have not gotten back to it as this section requires me to have settled on the location of the fuel pressure regulator and well I'm still trying to figure out what is going to go in that upper quarter of the firewall. One of these days I'll finally have to make a decision, but right now I am trying to figure out the best way to mount the coils using threaded rods so they can be mounted by the oil filler neck. I'm still trying to figure a way to suspend/support the rods above the block. Any thoughts?
