What are you feeding with that big a line? We use Adel clamps on all the lines and cables in the racecars and they can be gotten from any of the race parts dealers or several other places just google it.

That's the exact configuration of fuel lines I run...I use Made 4 You Products clamps and accessories for all of my hot rod and race car builds. I run my lines inside the frame using some of the existing holes to bolt the T-clamps and 10-32 nutserts for the other areas.

Check out Billet Specialties. They make some real nice clamps that are reasonably inexpensive and look real nice.

I did with a couple of mine. I drilled the hole all the way through the bracket and used a longer allen bolt, then drilled and tapped the frame, and screwed it right to the frame. They work really good and hold braided lines tight. Good luck!

If you're running steel braided hose, be careful because the metal clamps without an isolator are conductive. This is one of the reasons I use the Made 4 You products.
