Anyone using nylon P clips in the engine bay? Thinking of using them for the wiring across the engine (3.5 RV8).

Also, has anyone rerouted the clutch hose from running back to front to back? Thinking of a shorter route running down the back of the engine using braided hose.

Assuming the P clips are actually Nylon then they would be better at withstanding heat than the wiring insulation so I wouldn't see a problem.

My SEAC had braided clutch hose from the factory, and it's still routed in a big loop around the front so I suggest you do the same... risk of boiling the clutch fluid I guess.

Thanks.

Manifolds are being ceramic coated so just block heat to worry about. Hhhmmmmm.

It is nylon or stainless. Yet to decide.
