Hi Guy's I am ready to take her of the stands ,just finishing up a couple things .
I need some input as my brand new hard stock 3/8 N C bent fuel line is about 1 in. from header tube # 4 .How close is your stock 3/8 fuel line to # 4 header tube.
I know its assembled correctly as the holes in the frame and the fuel line all line up.
If you guy's can take a measurement and post, I don't want to bend as that looks tacky..Thanks guys and Happy Motoring .Beers for all who post :beers:

There's plenty of heat dissappation in an inch put ur finger an inch away from a hot header I think you will agree

Thanks guy's, I also was thinking of a 2in. wide piece of header thermal wrap on the fuel line at that 1 in. area.
A good idea or leave it alone,I was thinking it couldn't hurt ???
Thank's again Team Camaro Brothers by different Mother's and always be safe and Happy Motoring

Air is a great insulator. I wouldn't worry about it unless you notice a problem.
