Default Long Tubes touching brake lines.

Just interested in seeing if you all have run into this with your long tubes and what you did about it. I am thinking I will need to disconnect and rebend the lines. What have you done?

These are Speed Engineering 1 3/4 long tubes and their ORY.

As you can see in the pictures, the lines are sitting right on the Y pipe.

I would just bend the lines up and out of the way as it sits, no need to disconnect anything. Looks to be plenty of room up there to tweak them up. As long as you can get 1/4" gap in between them you're good to go.

There are what look to be fuel lines directly above it. I think to get them out of the way, I'll have to route the fuel lines underneath the brake lines.
