    I need some feedback on the routing of my oil lines. My concern is that possibly the movement of the motor will tend to push up on the hoses and maybe stress the lines over time. The hose that is on the one side is just temporary. I'm going to have crimped lines made once I'm sure of the routing.

    Flex lines do need to arranged so that the line is not pulled or pushed to and from the B-Nut connection. Suggest adding a 90 degree swivel elbow to the bottom fitting and a longer line so that the hose flares toward the camera.

    I'd have to put the bend towards the breather. It'll interfere with the brake pedal otherwise.

    I'm curious how much movement the motor will have with the biscuit style motor mounts. Doesn't seem like there would be much movement but obviously there is some. ImageUploadedByH.A.M.B.1439826394.884894.jpg
