rear drain line
Hi Guys,
On reassembly of my engine I have run into a problem that the rear drain line and the oil line hit each other. This my be caused by the SSI's that were not installed before. you can see the black line running behind the oil line Any way to get everything to fit again? Does anyone have a photo of how it "should" look? Thanks ![]() |

Got everything to fit after bending a few brackets around, nothing is chaffing so it should all be good!

I just cleaned up a mess made by that drain and lengthened it all the way to right in front of the oil tank. I added a backfire grid to the CIS airbox and a restrictor nozzle in the oil tank breather hose to stop my low oil levels from being dumped into the airbox and then drained onto the SSIs. The crossover pipe fit tight in there with the SSIs as you found. Hopefully this will keep the oil where it belongs - or put it where it won't burn.
