Patrick,
Yes it is a bit tight but it does clear the steering column but is pressed up against the chassis. I'm not entirely happy yet, so will be on the look out for three cheap right angle bends at the next show/ autojumble I go to.

Robin,
if you take another look at the FSE website you will find a link to the Sytec hose specification where it clearly states suitable for Brake Fluid.
http://www.fuelsystem.co.uk/hose.htm
then click on the link in the red box that says "For hose specification please click here."

I am sure I read once that this had caused a SVA failure. I guess it falls under the catch all category that the examiner has to satisfy himself it is built with suitable components.

Peter
