    GMuscle Thought you meant exhaust.

    Push loc Th350/400 Beware though. I was given doubles of some of the fittings. Had to call Summit and order Fuel line Push loc’s to finish the system

    When I did mine, I used -6AN line. I used fittings at each side. These screw into the transmission case,

    You can use pushlok hose like this,

    These screw into the radiator cooler fittings.

    Then just use either straight, 45* or 90* pushlok fittings depending on if you use an additional cooler or not.

    Thanks Larry. Those kits on Ebay all come from Florida. The kit they sent me had some extras. So i’m like feeling they put (2) in by mistake and not the (2) i needed.

    GMuscle. Running those lines down the inside of the frame. Great idea. Thank the wizard.

    Not my idea, others had been doing it that way long before me.

    Just revisiting this thread.
    Thinking of removing my 3” exhaust.
    Might be too big for my 400 hp car.
    I like this combo off my Doug’s headers.
    And this might also quiet it down a bit.
    Great thread that is a good read.

    Yes sir.
    But I’m just looking to stay streeter.

    I have a race car. A brand x car I run in index and brackets I’m also trying to upgrade.

    Just getting my Qjet dialed in for my Buick by a great resource here, everyday performance.

    Sorry to get off topic

    Love that white GS and looking to make mine little better.
    Smaller exhaust may also increase torque and hp by helping scavenge exhaust. Low compression w a good size cam needs help.
