this is great dave, I once fabricated my own breathing set up for a pinto, I never thought to use copper pipe! 😎

[@RR-mt2wp]

The wrap looks good on the manifold, against the red rocker cover. I'm hoping you video the breather and oil catch tank neat job, Dave. Greatly enjoyed.

[@DavesGarageuk]

Thank you 😊

Thanks Marty

Good use of your plumbing skills Dave. Looking forward to the balanced flu episode… 😂

[@nastygollumses]

Nice 👍 I’ve been considering copper pipe to run my heater pipes back & forth with a minimum length of silicon pipe to the engine for tidiness (and just to be different)……… we’ll see 😊

[@bobfrankish8883]

Nice job again Dave. I've made up a lot of replacement fuel lines using 6mm and 8mm copper and used the olive trick for the rubber hoses. I just soldered mine on, simple and very effective.

[@DavesGarageuk]

Thanks Bob, yep I've soldered rings on also if I need one either side.

Love your videos. Can wait to see this finished.are you fitting a rear/half roll cage Dave?

[@DavesGarageuk]

Hi, thanks, nope I won't be fitting a roll cage, will be fitting rear seats 😊

[@markrandle-k7h]

Hi Dave when are you thinking of painting the body?

[@DavesGarageuk]

Hi Mark, once I've got it back on its wheels and movable

[@markrandle-k7h]

@@DavesGarageuk Look forward to it, your doing a fantastic job best of luck👍

[@eduardogarcia3049]

Love the videos, keep it up. P.S you should not be wearing gloves with rotating equipment. That glove catches on the drill and there goes your finger or more. Stay safe.

[@DavesGarageuk]

Thanks 😊

[@superloopy24v]

All looks good. Do you think that breather is okay as is, once the other end is attached it will obviously be more secure, or would it be worth adding a support bracket further along, maybe to the rear of the head?

[@DavesGarageuk]

I'll sort brackets out later once I've got all the other guff in place
