I got the gas tank and all hoses and lines connected up. Lined the box with neoprene rubber, covered the pex tubing with aluminum tape and ran it through aluminum tubing inside the trans tunnel. Used some stainless steel tubing fittings and the buta-n hose and have it all connected ready to go.
I also added an aluminum shroud around the tubing from the tank to the conduit, not shown in this picture.




I have the rearend installed and fabricated the parking brake cable bracket using the stock midget cable. but it was a little too long, so I had a shop make me a new cable a little shorter ($25) using the stock sheath, and it appears to work well.

With the rearend mounted and the engine/trans positioned, I could measure the driveshaft length, and so got that and took the two halfs into Driveshaft Service and they mated them up for me at the right length for $110.
