I sprung a leak and ended up replacing the rubber hoses and relocating the pumps. Here are some before and after pics.

My buddy owns a garage and he did all the work from home. Really good work.:rock: This is his website: www.thehemigarage.com

Wow that looks great . I am gonna ask Gary to do mine like that. If not I will do it when I get it back. It looks so much better.

Gary....send $$ to Jrgnd for what he had to spend to do the job right and for endangering his life....

You got to stop going to those Hennessey workshops.....

No disrespect perceived.:) I am just not making any comments.:burnout:
 
I do understand why you had leaks....reg hose clamps will def not work with fuel injection!

60psi and a screwdriver equals fuel leak divided by the multiple of 6 and you get fire then multiply by 12 and that means dangerously dangerous

Actually those are Metal Crimp rings you need the special crimp tool to pipe the system. The stuff used for plumbing is made by Watts, personally I do not use it because overtime it will leak. Same exact stuff though.

The repipe I trust the new flare style system much more, you wont have to worry about leaks again. ;) :D
