Not much maneuvering room on a Scout w/headers for starter manipulation.

Actually pulled headers for final bolt down after we realized they were gonna hit on install. So they are just held on fingertight right now. Thank you ! I will pull them off to install starter

Got some more stuff done today. I ran the braided line from the hard line on pass side framerail. It ran neatly through the holes already in the gussets for the shock hoops. Then to the fuel pump and upward to carb (Holley 80457sa) just sitting lcoiloosely with carb hat on.

Check out the bracket I made for the ProComp coil. I used 2 peices of scrap aluminum, polished the edges and mounted on manifold using the stock holes for the divorced choke (which I wont need cuz carbs elect :-)

I have to figure out how to run upper fueline, either above water neck into banjo or all the way around (banjo is on drivers side and kinda want to keep line "below" inlet (banjo)

Do you guys see any problem if i didnt keep line low? and went over water neck straight into banjo??
