Adapting the stock fuel filler neck to work with the custom tank i had built.
Drill 2-5/8 hole in the appropriate location through the frame.
Weld in some random ass adapter flange piece i found from my exhaust box to stiffen it up.
Cut shit to make it fit

The only really huge thing that i miscalculated at the moment, is this:
Just look at those broke ass poor boy hose clamps

Those hose clamps will out live the car and you saved a bunch of money.

Built my first AN fuel line. Fits perfect. Considering the line is only 3 inches long

Well, as you've experienced your whole life, the shorter the hose the harder it is to get it to fit. Good job!

4. Count em, 4 spark plug wires. The other 4 is where it gets tricky with a coil wire, and cylinder 5/6 crossfire potential. That'll take me weeks to sort through the options.

I honestly don't give a fuck anymore. I literally ask all the wrong fucking questions

I think you're making progress, actually lookin' pretty good, just an observation about the fuel line placement (a 45 degree AN fitting would be my choice to move it away), bottom line------------it's your car, make yourself happy (from a guy who went nuts on a MGB and loves it)

Donāt discourage him. Get this shit done and you can change little shit later. Besides, it wonāt be up against the water hose. It will be against the hose clamp when you put it on.

Well you're too fuckin late! I think im going to buy a couple 90 degree couplings and make my own radiator hose. As long as i don't need any hose clamps they'll be ok

At $9,500, Would You Pony Up For This 1978 Ford Mustang II Restomod? - Jalopnik
People love to hate on the Mustang II, but to be fair, that hostility is more the fault of the era and not of the car. Todayās Nice Price or No Dice āStang has had most of what the ā70s sapped from the model restored via a newer 302 and other updates. Could that, plus its price, redeem it?

Stick a bit of insulating material between the two and worry about it later.
But do something - I ran a fuel line too close to a heat source and got stranded for a bit when it vapor locked.
