    If it’s overly large you will blitz past the torque and power delievery and shift it all past 4000+

    Give it an enema. I generally do 1000km prior to using coolant.

    All good Gary, not a lot happening here for another month anyway, the Aeroflow one is adjustable, I used it on my -8 fuel line and my 3/16th brakeline and everything in between.

     

    Got a link for this one?  I dare say if it’s multi sized it will be more then $100 lol.

    I did mine in stainless, looks scmick as, little harder to work. If I did it again I would probably have borrowed or made a tube straightener. Now I have a 3D printer i prob would have made one.

    Main reason why I want hardline. So I don’t have to straighten it.

    What stainless did you use?

    What sort of gizmo could you make?

    Yeah for my brake lines.

    I would like it in hard drawn if possible.

    Its not a massive or costly job to get parts re-anodised in black if you get stuck Cav. I did on my injector adapters.

    Yeah that’s was my last resort. If it can’t find anything.

    Im most likely going to make my lines and then get them coated anyways.

    Im struggling to find some 3/16 in hard drawn.

    Ian, Where abouts you buy your fittings from? I’m trying to source some bulkheads and inverted flares to suit the vz master for mine. But I wanna try and find them in black if possible. Ever seen any?

    Hey cava that is awesome if you get a chance can you take a photo from underneath for the headers I am going to build my own header so would be good to see what room there is , not sure if you have read my build of late but I have finely brought a lsa for the vh

     

    yeah I browsed your thread other day. There isn’t much room. But I rekon these could of been done a lot better. Tri Y would be best interns of clearance.

     

    Maybe look into a 1 7/8 tri y setup.

    I should of gone custom from the start. These owe me $650. So I persisted with them….. sadly.

    Bracket is from Lowe fab that I got powder coated. Along with strut tops and my brace etc.

    Master booster is a painted Vz Maloo item. Cap and reservoir is New old stock.

    Good mate of mine come around yesterday and gave it a good crack.

    We got the engine, box and headers in. Was a bit of fluffling around. We had to trail fit the box and then removed it so we could clearance sections on the case to clear the tunnel.

    Next was the headers…. for an off the shelf item that I then had to get modified the fitment is junk. Not happy with them, but for now it will have to do.

    It’s starting to take shape and you can now see the black and white theme coming together.

    Now I can start running all my service lines. Prior to removing the engine again. 😩😩
