Clutch Line Placement
I recently replaced the oil pan gasket and starter in my 5-speed, and came to realize that the removal of the starter and clutch slave is one royal PITA because of the clutch hydraulic line that passes between the oil pan and starter. Well, now its TB / WP time and the required placement of the fly-lock will have me going down that same road again. My question is whether anyone has come up with a bypass / re-routing of the clutch line since it looks like repeated movement of this line could potentially lead to bad things...not to mention that not having to deal with the line would make the whole process easier.
Thanks,
Dave

Just make sure the hard line isnt rubbing on any of the parts where it runs across the starter,
this will quickly wear a hole in the hardline .
Make sure the attach point is also secured on the driverside of the oil pan if necessary use a small piece of fule line and slide it onto the hard line to prevent chafing
