440bbm Posted September 11 Share Posted September 11 you can get hosetails that have male and female threads and elbows so super easy to do and get, and then just some fuel safe/alcohol safe rubber hose as brake fluid sucks balls and be way better using decent rubber with a couple hose clamps. by like 30bucks surely. any of the hydraulink/enzed shops/engineering supply shops have the cheap brass fittings. its only fluid supply so doesnt have to be steel etc as all oems use this method for remote reservoirs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This peaks my interest. I wasn't aware that fuel and brake lines couldnt be in the tunnel and I don't recall reading anything about this. I vaguely remember someone telling me that if you're making twice the original power you need to have two driveshaft hoops and cant have the lines too close to the drive shaft but haven't found any literature backing this up. Is it because you're making a certain amount of power compared to what it comes with from the factory? Perhaps a question(s) for our residential cert overlord @cletus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RXFORD Posted September 11 Share Posted September 11 You say you got copper brake pipe... if its straight copper it won't pass cert. Needs to be copper/nickel ( also known as Cu/Ni or kunifer). Might pay to double check before you get into it. Or post a pic of the markings on it. Sweet project though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it’s sold as Copper Nickel, it’s from Ali Express though so I’m a little dubious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks more orangeish, which is more like straight copper. Cu/Ni is a bit more gold coloured. But if you have receipts for it, then hopefully itl be fine. 49 minutes ago, Dudley said: You go work on your van aswell I have been!
