I looked just now, working at a salvage yard FTMFW, all of the 92+ cars have a fuel line that runs under the car and up the drivers side firewall and goes from about the rack to the bottom of the fuel filter. As you know ours jumps out right there next to the filter.

That's why I thought I would relocate where the fuel line enters the engine compartment on my project. I think it will look cleaner. I hope. tongue.gif Sort of like a wire tuck, but for fuel lines.

I like how that 99 CR-V fuel line from the filter to the rail worked out on mine. But it does go over the top.

The feed line that comes off the firewall then goes down to the bottom of the filter sticks out quite a good ways and is interfering with me having any kind of intake other than a filter directly on the Throttle Body.

What did you guys do to rememdy this. Id consider a SS Braid and AN solution but i havent looked into what kinda adaptor i need to go from the threaded fitting at the firewall to AN.




u can bend that if u want to go the cheap route!!

Here is something that popped up in a quick search. -6an to 14mm X 1.5mm inverted flare o-ring fitting. It's made for power steering, but it might work, or at least get you started. The worst needed is a slight mod to the end. You need to scroll down a bit to see it:

Here is another one:

I don't think this will help you much but FWIW, the P75 intake manifold will not clear the 3g civic firewall... more specifically, the IACV is what's really in the way. I deleted the stock IACV location on the rear of my p75 IM via JB weld wink.gif and used one of the large ~3/8" vacuum lines as a source for an EK IACV

I'd let you know how it would work but I broke my fking block mad.gif

Im going to get it knocked out one way or another.

Im going to Midwest Hose today to get one line made, and ill see what they can do about fittings, if not, ill go AN. I found that same fitting last night david. Ill end up with that, a 90* AN, some braided line and a 180* and a -6AN to M12 or whatever the bottom banjo bolt is.

Total cost was $25.xx

I took my banjo fittings to them.

As for return line im just going to swing by napa/autozone and get some fuel injection hose, and double clamp it at both ends.
