Noob with a new mx5 Saturn build.

The diagonal that connects to the rear most rail was longer than the plans. I can't remember my final measurement. I assembled all the other rails then cut the diagonal to suit.

I've got my brakes bled and working so hopefully that's sorted. I realise now though that I've stitched myself up for the fuel pipe routing. My gearbox mount is, sturdy and takes up a lot of room.

Would iva accept two 8mm fuel pipes passing through 30mm box section but insulated by grommets?

[Ianr]

gosh, don't know if they would but I wish I'd thought of that, made some extreme bends in mine to get past the same mount

[norton]

It might be a moot question as I don't think I can get my drill in there

I managed to pick up a right angled drill attachment from lidl or Aldi a while back....one of those things that you spot and think "that might come in handy!"

[RichardH]

any place you can get the drill in, make up a small bracket and drill the holes etc then mig weld it in place, you can generally get a tack on it.

I'll figure it out, there has to be a solution. Does anyone know off hand how close a fuel pipe can run next to a fixed object?

I have a one piece floor which bridges the trans tunnel and my mount, a 30x30 piece of box fits across the lower tunnel 20mm tubing. This means I have a 20mm gap between mount and ally floor, could I run the pipes through there?
