Ok, I am going to end up with my tank in the back in the battery box position and run a regular cooler in the front. I have no idea how to plumb it. Can I run aluminum hard line or should I go with some type of hose? Where do you run your cooler from, oil tank or engine? Is there any pressure in this system at all? Even a good link would be awesome that I could do my research on. Thanks again.

I ran under the rocker but outside the long bat the time it was a street legal car and I was worried about appearance. So threading a pre bent tube through drilled holes was tricky and flared fitting were going to just require a bIgger hole saw
It also required more fittings to go into and out of the pipe. So I might have saved the expense of around 18 ft of braided line but I spent that money on the extra 8AN fittings no real savings. |
