Default What's a neat way to run fuel lines down frame?

Anyone know of any neat clamps to mount fuel lines and a battery cable down the side of my Camaro? I've got a -10 and -8, and everything I've found so far has been for 3/8 and 5/16 little baby fuel lines.

I was thinking of machining up some neat organizers out of billet like spark plug wire separators to run every 14 inches or so, but it would be nice to just buy them instead of making a day out of it.

Go To Home Depot Or Lowes And Get Some Electrical Conduit Clamps They Are Very Very Cheap And Will Work Beautifully!!

Phoenix- I think those might be just what I'm looking for. Thank you!

SVC- That's what I've got now, I just painted the bottom of the car and have all the suspension parts powdercoated. Everything looks brand new and I wanted something billet or stainless to make it all look organized and "done"

Nate- The Aeroquip site is down, but I'll look into that -thanks!

Does anyone else have pictures of the fuel line routing? Im trying to avoid running any part of the fuel line in the drive shaft tunnel.

You know, I have been trying to think of something like this also. God forbid the driveshaft take a crap and the lines get cut and sparked. I know that's not likely but better safe than burning up your lifes savings... Anywho, I have been thinking of wrapping both the feed and return in heat tape (together) all the way back and getting creative with the mounting. Not sure how though.

Yup... I agree with you! It gets hard because Im not running the stainless CPE line but the teflon line so its also hard to bend those lines across sharp angles.
