If not it is close to what I got from Bret. I do know it did work on the car with having to put any thing around it. But I do know it cost me 125.00

Here is a pic of a custom line that goes completely around the headers.

Since Bret is so good at FAB work, let him come in and make a drawing of it.

your's & Jay's mind for sure in the gutter.

I wasn't going to say that in here but did see it was thinking Jay would come back on it as many times as I came back for him to.

Can anyone explain how to get the old line out and the new line in. I'm at the point where the next step is to start loosening the headers so that I can get the clearance to pull the line out of the bottom. I have kooks headers on an 02Z. Frustrating as hell.

Just for anyone trying to figure this out in the future, the easiest way to get it out is through the gap between the cradle and the body. cover the openings of the new piece to avoid grime getting into the hose and into the system once you bolt it back up. I bent the aluminum piping of the hose on the compressor size so that the rubber part of the hose would stay away from my longtubes. I also wrapped it in heat wrap.
