I need some ideas and pics on underhood fuel line routing.
Right now I have 2 SS hardlines coming up the top of the pass side frame rail in a 68 camaro.

I need to connect fuel and return to the back of the fuel rails as neatly as possble. Car has a small block gen1. Need to retain the ability to get the valve cover off. Prefer not to double up to the front of the engine, but there's not a lot of room back there, if I stay inboard of the heater box, they will be awful close to the header.

Anyone got some pics of cool solutions?

I really didn't want to run mine at the front of the engine either, but I ended up doing it because of an NHRA rule that won't allow the fuel line to be ran near the flywheel/flexplate. Being ran across the firewall would have been to close for that. I ended up running a stainless steel line from my fuel pressure control on the rear of the right side fuel rail over and along the base of the left valve cover. I put some of the insulation that can be put over spark plug wires to help keep it from getting hot. It's under the heater hoses in this picture.
