Time to get back in the garage! I haven't done much with the car since last July. I took the summer and winter off to work on some other projects and was really to the limits of what I could do with the parts I had on hand. I am about to order the engine and transmission so I figured I would get back in to the swing of things.
Updates on the drivetrain to come soon. Meanwhile, here are a couple of pieces I did get to do over the last year.
Finished the brake plumbing. Here is how I ended up routing lines through the firewall. I used solid lines to reduce bulk and minimize leaking. I have not seen this done much, so hopefully it works! The downside to this system is that some fittings are AN, others are OE flare. Also I have a few different color lines depending on where I was when I needed to purchase new brake lines. Oh well, cant see them.
Bulkhead fittings
Lining up with AN to NPT to custom reservoir caps:
Lastly finished design:
