      One thing to keep in mind is how much flex you allow for in the connection from hard line to the fuel rail of the engine. This is the reason I located mine near the engine mount area. The reason I choose this is that this is the pivot point of the engine and does not move much in this area. The angular movement will be less from there to the fuel rail. This is why the original fuel lines ran to this area for the flex connection to the original location of the fuel pump. My car is a dry sump setup and there was room for me to locate it in that area.

      That said I am not running A/C which typically is located in the same area. Bottom line (sorry for the pun) is to consider how much flex, heat and accessibility you have. Weigh these parameters and make the best combination that works for your situation. It is all part of the build and all the little things add together in the end.

      Cheers, Steve

      Andrew, he said he ordered the vaporworx pwm kit, for that kit, it requires the fuel pressure sensor to be mounted as close to the fuel pump as possible. Like in this pic from VaporWorx.Name:  CE868DC9-D749-499E-B857-B30E244AD556.jpg

      Yes, but it is still a good idea to monitor fuel pressure close to the fuel rail, since he is planning on Holley EFI.

      I'm pretty happy with the template I've been mocking up with the 1/4" nicopp. Easier that I thought it would be. Just a couple more decisions to make and I think I can start making the actual 3/8" line. Question on line protection. Is there any disadvantage to using some sort of rock guard? Can anyone point me to a decent one, preferably on Amazon? Also, can anyone point me towards line mounts that would work with bare 3/8" hard tube and rock guarded 3/8" hard tube? Everything I'm finding doesn't seem to have rubber dampeners on them and I'm guessing going without would be bad news. I'm really trying to put a lot of effort towards cutting out any rattles or creeks.

      Sweet. Thank you very much. Should fit it pretty snug then?
