I put a couple Nutserts in the firewall to mount the reg. I'm using factory heat, and an under-dash AC unit, so there was lots of room in mine.
I should have come up on the drivers side but thought I was making life easier for myself with the routing etc by coming top on the passenger side. WRONG!

Mine is all ethanol compatible - there is a big Hoo Haa going on here at the moment as regular petrol now contains 10% ethanol since September 1st - using braided and aluminium hard line.

It is what it is. If I have a problem down the line will wrap the lines, think I will be OK as there is a big gap between the fuel and exhaust plus the brace provides an addition level of protection. Time will tell.

Anyway. On to todays adventure.

Stay tuned, coming up right after this commercial break....
