Ryan this thing is nuts. I want to see it at for sure.  You're doing amazing work on things most people would totally over look.

Man Ryan, if you're this detailed with things like compressor lines, I can't even imagine what the setup is goingt to look like with the manifold.  When you're about to plumb the manifold email me first, I want to give you a few pointers with it.

Yep, the coilovers are there so I can roll it around for now. Derek,  I am sure I will be emailing when the time comes. I am doing the brake lines right now and they are a pain in the butt. Trying to get all the bends parallel and even are difficult but I am learning slowly.

Your are crazy ryan.  And I still can believe you were gonna fight the 300lbs black belt women at hooters like that.  This MFer means buisness!

this thing is nutz not to be a downer but with the compression fittings on the high and low side a/c lines you might have some serious leaks just some fyi other then that sic a** build your attention to detail is crazy

I don't think that the fittings you are looking at are compression fittings. They appear to be normal a/c line fittings with the o-rings.

The a/c fittings are crimp fitting that are not crimped yet and the in the older pics not everything is welded together. The screw together stuff is standard #10 and #6 o ring and a factory metric o ring. I am using reduced hose and fittings but they do not fit together tight like the standard size stuff. I thought about using Aeroquip compression lines and fittings but I know somwone who did and they leaked

working on the coolant hoses, they have to go under and behind the steering rack so the firewall cover can go on   stock hoses       Cut the previous modified coolant line off and capped     Add -10 male and new soft line will run under engine       Modified head outlet with -10 an for soft line   New line runs down the block  and steering rack       Made adapters to from stock hose to -10 to attatch hose to heater valve   New hoses attached at firewall

Got the brake lines done. Not perfect but they will have to do for now. Changed the vacuum nipple for the booster to the side and added  a -8.
