2 questions for you. Can you explain the vent plumbing you have going on your tank? I know some guys have had some trouble with venting their tank and spilling fuel.
The other is how you went about securing your lines under the car. I'm ASSuming the brake line, you drilled and tapped the DSE subframe connector? But what have you done in the thinner floor pan material?

As always, thank you for taking the time to share and answer our questions!

A fuel tank needs room to vent. The lines attempt to connect the vent to the highest point in the tank. One up on the filler neck and the other on the top corner. They Tee together then go up to the TooMuch vent in the trunk. Hope it works. If not I’ll add a expansion tank. The issue in the summer we pump 70 degree fuel into a car when it is 90 degrees out side. The fuel expands and fills the TooMuch vent. OE ad a dome or expansion area for this. In hot rods we want all the fuel volume we can get.

We route the brake lines the best we can on the subframe. Going rear we end up riding them down to the bottom of the car on the sheet metal. Because of the ABS it is 2 rear brake lines.
