Hello All,
First - thank you for all of the knowledge I have gained by visiting and reading the wealth of knowledge posted here.
I am using a 60 Bel Air w/ a 235 to teach my 17 year old son the basics. It's been great so far. This car is his daily driver. Following the guidelines set forth here we have rebuilt it, added cool Hi Po stuff from Tom Langdon,Clifford and Patricks.
QUESTION - Having had the machine shop follow the instructions to convert my engine for full flow oil filtration has me concerned about a possible oil fire. The oil lines leading to the filter are going to be about a fingers thickness away from the Clifford Headers. Do I need to worry? Should I use some kind of special lines?
Their is not any room left on the engine so I will have to mount the filter on the firewall or the fender.
We already had to abandon the Lokar cable linkage to the Holley 4 barrel because the heat from the headers kept making the cable fray apart. We are now using Mr. Langdons solid linkage.
Thanks for any advise you all can offer,
Fabian.
