I am building my second 914 and putting a 2.4 six in and building it with hopes of building it out to a hotter 2.5 long stroke next winter... So I am putting in a external cooler up front. I am looking for the best ways to run the lines.. I dont want to run GT hardlines. What did you do?? Pictures welcome!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

So which steel surface is going to wear out first? The hose or the chassis? No vibration?
