Undecided until it's all back together. Still waiting on flywheels and a few bearings.
I've never met anyone to dumb to get it but many to smart.

I think that you'll be having issues by using metal lines. Even tho it's a solid mount engine you still have vibration and flex.

You may have misunderstood what I said.  I am using rubber hose and FI clamps which are wider bands of steel and not corrugated like the gear clamps that cut into and damage rubber hose. 

I never mentioned this but my vent to atmosphere lines are solid but 2 piece with a length of 3/8" rubber hose between them to remove the vibration between the engine and the frame mounted canister. It has worked well.

I finished mine the other day , used DK customer filter mount it flows fine 3/8" npt holes ,
i swapped to an fittings , using an6 3/8 lines black braided from jegs,

then i used the BLOX universal engine plate it just flowed better than the DK i didn't like the 1/8" npt on DK plate and the blox was very nice,  they just didn't have a filter mount that would mount to a down tube,

you would have to use a P clamp with thiers and the feed holes are on top , but if you were going to mount horizontal down low the BLOX would be great the hole kit, here are some pics

That setup looks great!

She looks great for sure Itsafatboy. I used Hydraulic lines last time on my oil cooler setup qnd never had an issue. Just thought metal would look cleaner for an install and the ease to bend the tubing got me curious. That does look outstanding for sure. I'm still waiting on my DH wheels to ship. Once I get them and have the cases finished up and motor in I'll start mock up and explore ideas with the canvas I have then. Like that blox.
