Default Ignition wires and fuel line baffle pass thru

Hi All,

i searched the forum and web but wasn't able to find the answer... i have to route the ignition wires (from lightspeed box to coils top of the engine) thru the baffles. i saw some pictures of some bolted-on plastic bushings at the baffles. could anyone give me a hint from where to order these?

the same question for how to secure the fuel line running thru the rear baffle. what did you guys use here?

thank you very much in advance.

Kay--several ways to do the fuel hose. Best way is to put a bulkhead fitting in the baffle and run 2 sections of hose. Alot more expensive, but a nicer product. 2nd way is to route the hose through the baffle, and secure it on both sides with a bracket and adel clamp that is rivited to the baffle. Wrap some chafe guard, or better yet, some firesleeve tape around the hose where it will go through the grommet in the baffle. Seal it with RED RTV.
