I realize my questions are getting voluminous, but if anyone has the lengths of various hoses a person would need with a carburated 360, I sure woule like to get that from you so I can make an order from aircraft spruce and have everything on hand.

Another question too. The lord mounts says it take an AN 7 bolt, but does anyone know what length I need?

Hose length ? Each AC is going to have a slightly different set up . It depends where the firewall pass thru occurs for the fuel , gascolator location, etc.? I waited until all the pieces were in place then measured and made my own hoses . Oil hoses included . Be careful on the premade hoses , I think it is like electrical stuff...no returns if they made the hose too short (based on your measurements ).

Ask away ! The one question you don't ask may bite you in the Arse ! ;D I don't think we have too many secrets in this Community (unless it's..."What Happens in Vegas , Stays in Vegas !") ? That's how we learn .
