Re: air line

I got all mine from my local Parker store. They had a very good selection of dot line and fittings.

As a rule of thumb, make sure you keep them away from moving parts and heat sources. I always tell people to make sure the line is properly secured to whatever you are mounting it to. Make sure that it wont move around and wear down the line.
In regards to heat sources; place your hand around the line and if your hand is close enough to something that may burn you, you need to move the line.
I hope this helps. Feel free to give me a shout directly if you need anything else.

True.
If reality forces no other options, slip some rubber hose over the airline & then some sort of heat shielding on top of that. Also, any place that the airline can contact metal, slip some rubber hose over it. Cheap insurance.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
