Brief update, in the end I grew a pair and re-shaped (hand-bent) the brake lines running over the servo tower. Looks ok, hopefully will still stop ok, doesn't look like I've creased anything. Hope those silicone hoses are ok for vacuum. Anybody care to advise please?
While I'm typing, and because I've got the Bestek installed but not starting, what have you all done to get round the 'pink resistor wire' ? I'm thinking to take a lead from the fusebox (no's 6 and 7 liven with ignition) over to the Bestek coil +-ive terminal. I've tried with the original coil terminals onto the Bestek coil but no luck so I'm assuming my problem is that little pink wire.....
Nearly there for a drive in the sun. It's only been about 5 years 😬
