Its not close to the frame, it’s at almost the same level as the frame
the point was I didn’t want to run AN/steel braided caliper hoses though. Id Like to run the standard rubber hose
I can’t go under the frame, my wishbones would hit the line, I already have it on top right now and really don’t like the look. Only other option...
So I’m running gm metric front calipers, rubber hose and boxed stock frame I can’t seem to figure out what I need for through the frame fittings,...
I think the next step is to take the side over off yes. I agree it seems like it has what it needs to run!
Didn’t want to ask,as I feel I’ve checked everything but I can’t figure it out so here goes. 1930 stock bottom end banger motor. Bought this car...

got a link? I’ve been searching high and low on ebay with not much results all I’ve found so far is 0.125 wall. I’d like a little thicker

well, you ain’t wrong haha Just want it to hold up, this will be 450hp
.156 wall seems a little thin for a mount don’t it? 5thou clearance sounds about right? For the bolt vs tube ID
I’m not sure what more details are needed, I’ve already contacted many steel shops and all of them do not have it. They all seem to have 7/8 ID...
yeah something a 7/16 bolt can fit in and maybe like 7/8 OD? Something sorta thick but I only have MIG I did find something online but it only had...
