On the undercarriage of the car mainly, any ideas for subsititutes that can be used instead of hoses? I've seen where some have used rectangular tubing that went into the depression.

I guess I could look into doing that, since I will be implementing the cable shifter, and ditching that console.

Not sure how far up I would need to raise it for clearance?

Could a person use copper tubing and wrap it with that insulation?

I did that... Isolated it with rubber. Then got scared that any current in the coolant system would eat my motor from the inside out.
I pulled all $200 worth of the copper out.
I still have most of it. I would sell, but it sounds nice when the wind blows.
