Minimum safe distance for steel fuel line near exhaust pipe?
My steel fuel lines come rather close to my TD exhaust and I am trying to determine what the minimum safe distance should be. I have the fuel feed and the return lines wrapped in heat sock and they are a tad over an inch from the pipe right under the driver seat.
Thoughts???

I've often wondered the same. On one of my LT1 cars, I'm trying something called inswool ceramic fibre. 1" thick, it is used to line forges. A buddy of mine build a couple of forges and gave me some to wrap around my lines. up to 2300* on one side, near-ambient on the other.
