Dave,
Just looked at my CAT braided stainless oil pressure sense line, put
in by the PO. It comes straight out of the block (no extension unit
like a Mustang) and takes a gentle curve just under the expansion
tank and along the inner fender well to the hole in the firewall. It
is supported by a simple aluminum aircraft type clamp, with a
standard rubber inner band sleeve, bolted to the lower bolt on the
fender of the firewall brace. Very simple, very stress free, very
accessible.
Now, I am using the Motorsport right angle adapter and the full size
filter, so I don't know if all those hoses of the standard filter
mount would interfere with this simple installation.
Just my set-up and recommendation. Seemed bending it up and over to
the valve cover was a more radical routing.
