Fuel pipe routing
Can anybody advise on the best route for a 10mm solid fuel line once I have come past the gearbox trunking into the engine bay, or which is correct for the Tiger. I have headers going back on the engine and didn't want to run to close for heat or space reasons.

Here is the finished X member with my own Wilwood brake up grade. I have put back 4 shims on each of the top wish bones, as this is what came of the Alpine axle, I assume this is correct for the Tiger. I was going to build up the axle on the car, but in the interest of time, while waiting for the en...

Hi Tony. Yes no probs, drilled and slotted. their brake expert said I would be going back every two weeks for new pads so suggested plain for now. the disc is 285mm so plenty of power and the caliper capacity was matched to the old ones so should be ok on master cylinder. you can have a look at Le M...
