Re: my 80 build

Re: my 80 build
What transmission crossmember are you using? is it stock? I need to come up with something I can run 3" exhaust over the top of on both sides.
|
Re: my 80 build
yes its the stock double hump one
|
Re: my 80 build
Coming along nicely. Can't wait to see the finished product.

Re: my 80 build
Would it be a huge inconvenience to take a good pic of that trans crossmember for me. What did those come on?

Looks like you used a fitting right there from the braided line to the fuel sender, do you remember the part number for it? Is it one off Glock's list? |
Re: my 80 build
for the sender lines I shortened both the return and feed line a inch or so and used this one for a return line

So, did you: 1. cut the ends off the 3 fuel sender's tubes, 2. then put a nut on each fuel sender line, 3. then flared the fuel sender line with your 37' flaring tool, 4. then threaded your a/n end onto the nut? One other question, are you running one or two fuel tanks? Thanks for your help! |
Re: my 80 build
I havent used the braided line before either
1.I cut the end for the feed and return spout and bent the vent line to get a mini tubing cutter in 2.yes 3.yes 4.yes I'm running one tank |
