Stainless Braided lines for the Engine Bay Interested in replacing all possible lines in the engine bay with stainless braided. Anybody done this before? Have a good source? Part #'s and lengths even? Thanks.
i have done fuel lines and heater core lines in steel braided line, and have a lokar throttle cable it gets expensive quick but as long as your up for that it looks great when finished
I have all -16 An braided radiator hoses, all braided fuel lines and An fittings, lokar braided trans and oil dipstick, Braided line to the boost referenced regualtor. there is no part numbers for making braided lines you figure everything out you need, order the line and fittings and get to work making it all
ill look it up when i get home cant remember the part number but i think they only have 2 for the ls1 and its the 36" one, but let me double check
and yes it was a direct replacement but i do not have cruise control so it may not be an option (i say that cause i have never seen the box that controls it in person)

It says that cable is for a Ram Jet housing (whatever that is?) Will it work with the stock style intake and TB (and throttle cable bracket?)
97ramsst i cant honestly answer it as i have the l76 intake with a holley 90mm tb
but i can imagine why it wouldnt the only thing i had an issue with was the way it mounted to the pedal it puts the cable at an odd angle but i have yet to have a problem with it

when we did mine we made sure to cover the line in electrical tape at the section we wanted to cut to keep the spurs down to a minimum, then use a little wd-40 to help ease it into the fitting (make sure to take the tape off first)
I am also interested in replacing the stock throttle body cable and bracket with Lokars if they will fit without any mods. I have the stock intake and TB on my 98 LS1. Anyone else done this upgrade with pics? Thanks
