flyingbrick Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 I have my 3/8th inch Bundy tube fuel line secured by p clips.. Its rigid as hell and not going anywhere but I'm sure I have exceeded 300mm between clips in a few places. Are you going to fail me on that, cletus 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
datto_610 Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 You can get them from, Appco, BNT etc but pricey! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUNAMUCK Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 The clips pictured are chassis clips. P clips are plain old plastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or just research whether the distance requirements are the same between battery cable mentioned previously, and the fuel line you're talking about.

cletus Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 fuel lines= if they are factory, the original clips are fine, even if gaps are greater than 300mm. Â when the fuel lines are modified = clips every 300 minimum, can be spaced closer than that 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingbrick Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Thx. I couldn't find anywhere that stated 300 for the fuel line. I'll add more where needed. Yes damn pricy fuckers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MRWEST Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 assuming that swaybars bottoming out on steering arms in impala when its aired out will be a no no?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MRWEST Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 also if I want to space up chassis side engine mounts say 10mm, would it need a spacer plate under the hole mount or just under each four bolts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunacy Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Hey cletus. Am I able to have my reversing lights hooked up to a toggle switch in the cabin, rather than having the gearbox switch? There's just very little room in the trans tunnel for a switch, so wondered if being able to activate it manually would be ok. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajg193 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 You could put the switch up by the base of the gearstick so it presses it when you select reverse? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cletus Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 also if I want to space up chassis side engine mounts say 10mm, would it need a spacer plate under the hole mount or just under each four bolts? either would be fine, might be better to do between the block and mount bracket if the mount has a stud poking out where it goes thru the crossmember, as you may run out of thread length by the time you fit a nyloc/washer/spring washer combo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cletus Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 assuming that swaybars bottoming out on steering arms in impala when its aired out will be a no no?? correct, no fouling of anything throughout the whole range of suspension travel is allowed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
