Brake line routing in engine bay

[Ian928]

I think the original clutch line was a hard pipe, and looking at "before" pictures it was routed between the steering shaft and the starter, that does not seem to be a good way of doing it... I would like to have it run by the firewall and be secured by the white clips there, but my girlfriend who is doing the job tells me the line is not ment for that tight radius. Also, the area there is already filled with brake lines, petrol lines and electrical wires...

Hi Ian,
can you tell me what color and how you painted your brake booster with. Color looks close to the original cadium finish.

That is just pure luck! Also I think the picture is lying a bit. It is rattlecans that I had available on the shelf. They are a Swedish brand so no reference for you there.

I can tell you that this has been discussed before on another forum I visit, Eastwood apparantly has a system made to look like cadmium, there are pictures of parts painted with that system here: https://rennlist.com/forums/928-foru...xperiment.html

They look fine!

yes it’s a difficult area!

Can’t help on the clutch line. When I got mine out it was a rhd one despite being sold and marked as a lhd

Can you tell from the picture in post #14 if I have the correct one or the rhd one?

Looks ok. The rhd one is about 28 inches the lhd one is about 40 as it needs to go across the engine.
