Okay, so I have made more progress on the car in the past few months than I have in the past two years and I want to keep the momentum. to give everyone an idea of where I am going with my car, it is going to be a driver for good weather and a trackday toy. But heavily used at the track... ( wife won't let me go all out track cuz she wants to ride around in it...(IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad2.gif) ... But that is her only wish without any complaint til now, I won't pry...
I need some advice/guidance based on folks experience... First I have heard good and bad about aluminum fuel lines. I know that I want hard lines that will be mounted along the longs. I am wanting to run them with AN fittings on each end with braided lines running to the tank and engine. What's you're opinion? Second Can someone provide non factory seat mounting. I am running bride low max seats and I do not like their seat rails or the height of them so I am looking into other options if I don't modify the factory setup. Last... I am torn in the Gauge area.... I love the look of stock 914 gauges but I really like the AIM dash. Does anyone have one of these and driven on the street? I am looking for the good and bad to this... Thanks, Thomas |

ArtechnikA, Dave & Stu
Thanks for all of the info. I am going to go with earls stuff anyway, but I didn't know that they had a PTFE lined version of their braided lines. I have found that in using the braided lines earls is the only way to for the quality that you can actually tighten and not have leaks... I'm pretty familiar with PTFE because I use a ton of PTFE products for work. When dealing with things that have to hold up to skydrol you need a good barrier... I don't mind to spend the dough upfront as long as it lasts and performs well. Saving money to spend more later never was a "perk" in my eyes. I am also looking into the crimped lines through Goodyear. I can buy them through work as premade "hydraulic" lines (hehe) with nice fittings. Still up in the air and trying to narrow options down. Anyone have anything on the AIM dash for street use? Again, thanks Thomas |
