Brake line too close to header tube?
Thanks for the input, Gentlemen.
Well, I did a bit of both.
I have a Prop valve under the Driver's seat, so the line from that to the Distribution block was fairly short, although it weaves through just about everything under there as if it grew there. I disconnected the line and slid it back so I could put an extra little wow in it. In hindsight, I should have wrestled it all the way out and tuned it up on the workbench instead of under the car but....
The extra bends moved the line out about 3/8" or so, which is still less than the 1/2" TTI says is required.
While the line was loose, I slid a piece of the thermal sleeve (1200*) over the line. I have some S/S zip ties, so I'll use a few of those to hold it in place, after I bleed the brakes and do one more check for leaks.
Hoping for Fire-up in Feb or March, so will add this to the list of things I'll be watching very closely.
