The ZL1 pump looks so good! That would be very appropriate for my build as well. I like what William posted. The 90* fitting with the pump clocked a little may work in your application. I made my own line, which still took me three tries with the engine out of the car. As you can see, mine snakes around the lower radiator hose
![]() I have seen photos of motion cars that used the factory hard line from the fuel pump connected to a generic chromed holley dual feed line with a rubber hose. I used a copper oil pressure line for my fuel pressure gauge because I felt it looked the period. FWIW I believe NHRA does allow a mechanical fuel pressure gauge in the cabin if it is a steel braided hose, I've seen drag cars this way ![]() |

Another test car did burn to the ground when the copper fuel pressure line work hardened during a cold weather test trip. The engineer got out, but lost all his clothes, including his jacket. You could see the burn spot on the highway up by Grayling for many years. You'd think the techs would know not to use copper....

I had gotten a referral for a good automotive photographer from Colin Comer. He was here yesterday to shoot 4 cars for me. While we were fighting harsh sun most of the day, we managed to still get some decent pics IMO
