Anyone that has done the fuel line relocation mod come in
So i just decided to relocate my fuel lines and didnt want to make a loop in the wheel well considering i dont have the plastic pieces. I also didnt want to cut and fit my lines just incase of that error and i would have to buy new ones.
So what i did is i relocated mine through the wiper cowl since there was already a gap between the cowl and the body. Then looped it over the side of the cowl and then behind the brake booster and then to where the fuel rail is.
Has anyone done it this way and if so has there been any problems doing it this way?

I like it.
You may need to add a little length to them, and I would wrap them at any juncture where they may touch/chafe on the cowl. Or use a neoprene cable clamp secured by a self tapper to route it where you want and also prevent it from moving around / chafing.
Should work though. Might have to try it this way when I do mine. I will be tidying up the engine bay quite a bit while the engine is out.

this just started as a cap and rotor replacement and decided to do a cam and valvetrain upgrade. then head gaskets, appearance modifications and so on. I also relocated the wiring harness that was on the passenger side wheel shock tower as well as relocating the hood latch cable. It looks 100X better than it did from the factory

My car has a LS1 front end conversion and also a air intake converion. There are also pics up on my photobucket about how i did my alt relocation to where the a/c compressor used to be located. http://s687.photobucket.com/albums/vv233/litch2004png/

i spent about 3hrs today trying to relocate my fuel lines today the "traditional" way (behind the brake booster), but i could not seem to get the lines to sit in a way that would not kink them when connected to the fuel rail. The length is fine, i just cant seem to get the angle. Any suggestions? Thanks guys
