Fuel System - Continued

Following my previous post (here) regarding the proposed changes to how the supply fuel hose runs, I have managed to address the issue.

I made a bracket using some stainless flat bar and bridged across the chassis to hold the fuel hose Y-Piece.  The chassis was tapped to accept M5 button heads, and a P-Clip was modified to make a saddle clamp to hold the hose connector.  I added a P-Clip onto the hose to provide a little more support.

I then cut 2 pieces of -8 Hose to link from the Y-Piece to each fuel rail.  This now gives enough clearance for the regulator and ECU loom.

I now need to fit the 180 degree hose connectors to the front of each fuel rail and make hoses to return back to the regulator at the bulkhead.  This should complete the front end of the fuel system, and I will require to get the hoses into the boot where the tank, filter and pumps will be.
