Hybrid,

In case you are debating what slim fans to get, keep in mind that there will be more clearance from the fueled racing kit than sikky kit, as the engine sits further back with the FR kit.

It's the upper radiator hose for the 2008 corvette. It fits pretty snug.

Hey Stu, can you elaborate a little on that for a lost man? Did you get the universal dual core or one specific for the G35?

That looks awesome. Would love an LS3 swapped g35. Would probably get better fuel economy too.

Everything stopped for 2 weeks due to a long business trip to mexico and Brazil. More updates over Christmas break I hope.

Where/how did you route your fuel lines? They come too close to the headers in stock location IMO.

What did you use for a lower radiator hose?

Sounds like a nice trip.

Since my battery is in the trunk, I ran the fuel lines up the passenger wheel wells behind the liners and through the old battery compartment and drilled holes through the sides of the inner fire walls. I encased the steel braided fuel lines in rubber heater hose to ensure no contact on any metal would cause a problem while making their way through there. I also created two posts in there for the GM computers fuse box and accessories connections. It all worked out nice.

Lower radiator hose. This was a PITA. I pieced it together for now with 3 hoses. I am looking into a mandrel bent steel pipe idea. Theres another idea thats a bendable pipe, but Im really not sure if its any good. Gotta go to the muscle car shops and forums to research more. But for now, it works fine.

I was thinking of that route for the fuel lines as well but was a bit concerned of routing through the electrical area....the heater hose is a good idea though...I'm going to borrow that one....... Where / how did you go from rigid fuel line to braided? I assume the large line next to the fuel line is the EVAP. Did you connect the line to the back of the manifold up to this line? Is there somethong im missing to that bit?

Did you do a oil catch can and which one did you use?

Thanks for all your help by the way......good to get feedback from someone who has done all this recently

I used a steel braided line from the tank to the Fuel rail. Then I ran the return to the regulator and then another line back to the tank from the bottom of the regulator. I dont use the infiniti lines.

I dont think its that big of a deal because the fuel lines are also encased in another sleeve of rubber tubing. Theres no way fuel could leak out.

No oil catch can. I dont like the smell they give off. Not needed.

Never needed an oil catch can to start with.
