@louu,

Lou, in one of the pictures there were two lines that seemed like they were right up against the header tubes, You are going to cover those lines aren't you? I think one of those is a brake line and the other is a fuel vapor return line or something like that? I think the other two attached to the frame might be brake lines, or fuel lines. If those come out away from the frame, near the header tubes they need to be covered to. One, you don't want to boil brake fluid, and two, you don't want to vaporize fuel in the line, especially if you are going TBI.

Thanks Will, those are the trans cooler lines. That's how it was when I got it but when I was doing all this work I bent them the right way
