Re: Running Fuel Lines

There is enough meat on the frame to support a 10-32 thread for small stuff like that if you're handy with a tap. If you don't want any uglies at all on the other side of the frame, screw a button head screw in the threads you tap from the outside and use loctite on the threads. The inside will now look like a stud you can use a nut on for the clamps pictured. It's clean AND easily removable. You'll be surprised how many times you might remove those fuel and brake lines. I also use nutserts in 10-24 and 1/4-20 in those situations. You can get the cheapie nutsert kit at HF or the good one from Marson. It's a little bit of an investment but I use them all the time for a clean install.
