I like the use of hardline plumbing. It looks good and is technically sound. However, why not go with threaded flare fittings for the connections (where possible, such as fuel pump to carb) instead of rubber fuel line and hose claimps, which seems to defeat the purpose of the hardline? Cool video!!
I wanted to isolate the copper pipes, as any hard vibrations will make the copper brittle and prone to cracking. Also I'm doing this whole build on a budget. Total price from Radiator to firewall: $950 Canadian. Thanks for watching!
In 2nd year we were told that copper never takes a double lap without splitting... hope you prove them wrong coz all them polished bits look great ! That girl is *FAST !*
@@hedgepethracing9590 Hey! Thanks for the sub! I believe it was 3/8" line. I could be wrong tho. might be able to freeze the frame somewhere in the episode
Let me begin with saying i typed in copper fuel lines And your channel popped up. Happy! Then i see Polished lines Thrilled ! Then i see a method of how to bend them without kinking! Amazed ! And then a fellow Canadian ! Fuckin sub'ed and liked I have a custom Blazer Everything i done was in a parking lot And 4 hours time in a spray booth lol However its been driving me nuts on Brake lines and fuel lines And cheap rusty replacements I had one mech try to bend a copper line 3 times And fail 3 times And ether They sell the pre bent lines in plain steel Or your looking at $600 to $1000 in copper lines pre bent custom orders Thanks for your video
Cheryl will never be sold, she's the first car my wife and I bought together. Daily drove Cheryl for a few years before her engine packed it in. I have so many stories and memories made with that little car, she'll never leave the family!
I enjoyed the tips, humor and watching the build. Its been a long time since I since a Vega on the road. Sweet.
Thanks for watching Steve! Glad you enjoyed this Episode!
Very creative!
Thank you!
sweeeet. I love the creativity.
wow, I like the idea you made, brother. I'll try to do it and change the hose into copper fuel lines.
I have dreamt up doing an all black engine with copper lines for years. #jelly
Ooooooo That would be beautiful! Reminds me of that diesel-powered black and copper '49(?) Caddy that was at SEMA a few years back
Nice plumbing Mike!!
Thanks Dad!
Looks great

Thanks Bubba! As far as fast goes, I cant wait to hop in the drivers seat and mash that loud pedal! 🤙
I bet... was talking about your daughter tho, she got the jump on each run !
@@TheCanadianBubba Oh hahaha! Yeah I know right? She tree'd Chevy on every pass!
How close to the lower radiator hose is too close for a metal fuel line to be?
What size line do you use brother? New sub here, you're right up my alley.. we think alike -
