Several 6 owners in my club have re-routed their pump to carb line so that it
crosses the car around the top of the grill. They claim that the factory
route around the top front of the head is too hot an area and can lead to fuel
vapourization. Not really that hard to do, but is it worth the effort?
My line changes from steel (copper?) to rubber hose about 1/2 way across the
front of the head. Most of my rubber line to the split in the hose is wrapped
in heat reflective tape from the auto parts store. I have HS6s and headers.
I also note development of a carb heat shield for the 6. Is this worthwhile
for street performance?
Thank you,
