I'm finally to the point of routing hoses, cables, and mechanical items into the cockpit after 30 years of restoration. When I took everything apart I diagrammed all of the firewall openings and what went through each hole, but I didn't diagram routing through the engine compartment.
I need the following help:

1. Speedo cable route through the engine compartment.


2. Routing on the engine ground strap


3. Clutch slave piping from master.


4. Suggestions for improved heater hose routing.
(I plan on using custom bent S/S tubing for all but connections)


Any help or suggestions would be appreciated,.
 
Routing

Hi John,
The routing of the speedo comes up through the the engine side of the trans tunnel and enters through the fire wall through a hole just above the steering column.
For the other questions you had, I can send you pictures if it would be explained better. Happy to help.
Sincerely,
Brian

Speedo cable routing

I have the trans tunnel part and the firewall hole part, but what I am concerned about is the routing between a the two and within the engine compartment so as to minimize cable bend and to avoid burning from the headers.

Mine runs extremely close to the headers so I am insulating the cable in that area....
