Looks neat, just hope you never have to remove them . Might be a bit akward drilling out all the rivets with everything in place? Whats the threaded rod for ?

cheers,

the pipes are fixed to the brackets using dome head screws(does look like rivets in the picture though) so removing them shouldn't be a proble,hopefully won;t need to though!!.

the threade rod is part of my gear linkage, will be changed for something else once i've proved it works

Looks neat and tidy mate. Only problem I can see is that in the distant future the alloy/steel mix (it looks like that but maybe it's not) could corrode and fall of. Not something to be relished in the prop area

if I was Mr SVA I would not be happy about the long dangly brakets - I can only see they are fixed at the chassis and then hang down - vibrations may affect the brake pipes.

If you push on the botton of the dangly bracket, does it move at all?

i thought that fuel lines had to go on one side of the tunnel and brake and wiring loom on the other side





I love Pinto's, even if i did get mine from P&O!

Tell that to some of the major car manufacturers . Then again Ford Focus fuel pipe clips are a lot further apart than our cars have to have them

dunno but it would make sense to keep electric (source of a flame) away from fuel and brake (stuff that can burn)
