Brief Description:  Smoke System Install 3

Ok. Nearly finished with major bathrooms remodeling in our Daytona Beach condo so back to my project. Added a doubler to the firewall where normally brake lines come through for tail dragger models. Installed the bulkhead fitting and connected the oil lines firewall forward. I test fitted a straight, a 90, and finally a 120 degree fitting inside the cabin to direct the oil hose line away from my rudder pedals. I settled on the 120 degree fitting to point the line either to the outer sidewall, or I can point it to the center tunnel. I'm looking for the best route from the pump. Haven't decided that yet, but the 120 degree fitting moves the line close to the firewall and away from any potential obstruction (feet or pedals). I will send Marvin back the straight and 90 degree fittings. Did I say he was great to work with?

Routed the lines to adel clamps on each engine mount tube for stability.

If I route via center tunnel, this is how the hose will connect. Otherwise pivot it towards sidewall.
