The new pipe runs above the fuel pipe (a short length of coper is shown clamped wheel the pipe will run) |
I also decided to change all of the fixings I was using to fasten the pipe clamps from stainless button head screws to grade 10.9 zinc plated button head screws. I was finding that the hex socket in the stainless ones was stripping a little to easily when trying torquing up. Rather sort now than when the car is complete and I find I can't get in there and the head strips. All fixings have spring washers and thread lock. Not only does this stop the screws from vibrating loose the threads are sealed into the chassis as well.
