Nice.... how are you mounting the hardlines? I've got a machining project going on that you may be interested in... shoot me a txt if ya wanna know 
Also.... If John is gonna be with you this weekend... check out one of the pics I'm about to post.... it's the MAP sensor mount that he was asking me about.... I'm having a dozen of them cut. I know John was down for 2. Mikes down for 2  I need 4 so there will be 4 left over until I have another run made... price will be in the $40 range last I spoke to him about them... we'll see after he gets them cut what the machine time is. Yeah, I know its not the normal way things are done, but I've been doing business with him for like 8 years so we take care of each other....

Very tight and completely surrounded by heat with little airflow.... nothing else is really getting killed with heat back there so I'm happy about that. Removing the seal between the firewall and the hood probably helped with that a little as well...

By the time the air gets to the rear of the engine, it's already heated up a lot.
Typically, the rear of engine runs hotter than the front - shoot an IR thermal gun and take some temps...

Rear of the engine as in housings/irons etc or are you referring to rear rotor EGT's?

Mr. Ambrosio (RENESISFD) is coming over this weekend to lend his expertise and hopefully help minimize the amount of trashed lines... Hardline Party!

NICE.... He bought one of those MasterCool hydraulic flaring tools correct? I fucking love that thing.....
