Amazing work....beautiful..

One Question/comment..... on you gas tank vent tube... the valve... if its the one I'm thinking of it has to be straight up/down or the valve doesn't work. I bought one thinking I could get it to work in a spot I had on the frame rail... but if you tilt it at all, the valve closes. So you may want to verify that the valve works in the angle you have it mounted.

So, I have thought about this over and over and I feel like you have confirmed my thoughts.

If you take the valve, hook it to a short line of hose and then try to suck/blow through the hose, while tilting the valve....if yours is the same as mine..... you will note that as soon as you tilt it from straight up vertical, even just a little .... it stops functioning. Its pretty sensitive to being tilted at all, which I guess is a good thing if you wreck the car and dont want gas pouring out of it

Yep, it's the same one you had and now it's time to look for a new routing & location.

I found the stuff that came from Vintage Air so I just used that. However this looks way nicer.

So I have finally decided that I am going to use the DSE Battery Terminals as they are the nicest looking and I just like them.







Now that I have made my final decision I can complete the wires that are going to the battery terminals.



Fan Relay all wrapped & labeled in Tech Flex wire wrap.



Playing with the wire routing to see if I like it.



Trimming the weld stud.





Hard to tell in this picture but if you look closely you can see I added a line clamp to secure the wire behind the battery tray.



The fan relay trigger runs under the battery tray and I will connect it to the holley ECU wires that are running on top of the inner fender.



I am also looking at options for the Vintage Air Coolant & AC Line.



Need a break from the car so I ran over to the Eastwood store and picked up some Flexible strip caulk that I am going to use on the back of the Bolt On DSE Firewall closeout panel.

Jeff-

My only regret is I didn't do it sooner and Jason Statham is one bad ass dude.
