S2K-F8

So my car was down for a few weeks earlier this summer. I decided to try a wire tuck. Since I lost my wiper reservoir during the tuck, I had a custom one fab'd up to fit where the battery/fuse box goes. Also, my Full-Race manifold gets so damn hot that it melted my heater control valve, heater hoses, and AC lines (soft lines). I went to -AN push lock fittings, punched thru the upper firewall, and ran the upper bypass hose and new heater control valve in the wiper cowl. Now some pics...

Wiper reservoir fab'd up out of cardboard...this took me many hours

Rerouted heater control cable and valve

Routing hard line so I can still use the bleeder nipple


Everything hooked up

post up a parts list of everything needed to reroute the heater lines behind the firewall like that

Damn I would really have to think about that and take a look at everything. A lot of it was trial and error...and lot's of trips to the shop that I ordered the AN fittings from.

Off the top of my head:

60 degree AN - 1
90 degree AN - 4
120 degree AN - 1
Low Profile 90 degree - 1
Bulkhead fitting - 1
90 degree bulkhead - 1
Coupler - 1

Dremel with cutting wheels
Hole saw
extra hose
clamps

Definitely a lot of cutting and test fitting...

Damn that's so nice; I wish my full race setup could look like that, but I'm to lazy to relocate everything

Wow that looks great. I gotta look more into running that in the cowl as well to clean up the bay some more.

Good job

nice work

Good stuff! I know those fittings aren't cheap! Never thought to relocate that there

Thanks for the comments/compliments guys!

Def not for the faint of heart....drilling thru the upper firewall into the cowl and cutting and bending the upper bypass hardline. Also the windshield wiper motor baseplate had to be trimmed down a lot for the hose to fit by it.
