Hey folks,
I've got two heavy wall 5/32" vacuum hoses that I need to get through the firewall. This is for an EFII system install - one of the hoses tees in front of the firewall to to the fuel pressure regulator while the other end connects to an EFII manifold pressure sensor. The other comes in and tees between a Dynon and EFII sensor.
My question is, what's the best way to get these hoses through the firewall?
Looks like I can use a 90 degree AN fitting for this purpose, but they're pricey: http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/hapages/an848.php
Then again, the 90 degree might be nice if there's an engine fire and the hose burns off.
Another option is to bundle the two manifold pressure lines with my starter and regulator cables inside their 0.5" shielded firewall passthrough.
Thanks in advance, all!
