Snakeeyes,

Progress on my Lister is going fairly well so far with most hurdles resolved fairly simply. But I do have a couple of questions.

I just dropped in the engine/transmission yesterday and discovered that the Hurst Indy shifter that I installed will be sitting much higher than I desire. I am using a Richmond Super T-10 and even though I believe that you are using a M-22, I was wondering what shifter you used and if you are happy with its height and locating in the car?

I was originally going to purchase a wiring harness from Chuck but after many months of waiting I finally decided to go with a Painless universal harness. What did you do for your wiring and are there any suggestions/recommendations that you could give me on the most effective cable routing, fuse block location, and any thing else that you learned in the process?

I am also about to run my fuel lines from the fuell cell to the engine bay and was wondering how you did this? Chuck told me that he drills holes in the 4" tube frame and runs the metal line inside the frame tube. My only concern with this is that the line will be laying on the bottom of the frame tube and may chafe over time due to vibration, eventually leaking fuel inside the frame rail. Did you do this or did you run it externally, and if so how did you route it under the car?

Well I am sure that I will have some additional questions soon but if you could help me out with these for now I would really appreciate it. By the way is your Lister on the road yet? Whether it is or not if you have any additional photos I would appreciate you posting them on this forum or emailing me directly (alan.blair@intel.com).

Thanks,
Alan
