      I believe this is the McMaster Carr item on page 709

      Woven Nylon Fabric Sleeving
      Sleeving is woven from nylon filaments into a highly abrasion-resistant fabric sleeve. Great for protecting painted finishes on chains, cables, and springs. Slip over wire, cable, hose, and more—just secure with nylon cable ties to complete installation (ties not included; see pages 1337-1341 ). Maximum temperature is 250° F. Color is black.

      I really like the black fuel line idea for hiding wires.

      I put everything I could, like my MSD and coil under the dash , and used a firewall feed-thru. I am a complete nut when it comes time to wire things , especially under the hood. The less wires showing the better.

      This spring , my entire engine bay is going to get gutted , and redone , so keep the clean engine bay pics comming !

      I'm a glutton for punishment when it comes to wiring being that i'm all about EFI. I really like the idea of running wires through fuel line, will definitely have to try that trick next time around.
      Personally I like to move as much stuff as possible out of the engine bay. I have more stuff tucked away under my wiper cowl than you could even imagine. But it keeps things clean, cool, and very easy to access later down the road. Simple gromets and a single bulkhead plug keeps the wiring fairly clean considering what I have to work with.

      one thing about running wires in fuel line is that you sometimes have to put the wire in a straight tube and then bend it, depends on how thick the wires are, because they won't fit through the bends sometimes, also make sure they aren't chaffing the tube when the come out of it.
