32/36 Fuel Line Routing

[fastfrontier17]

My series ii came to me with a 32/36. The fuel pump has a hard line that turns 90° and runs in front of the valve cover (under the expansion tank). The hard line stops near the center line of the car, and rubber fuel line makes the rest of the distance to the carb. I have the line routed so that its as far away from cylinder one as possible, but I'm still worried about it. Could anyone share photos or a description of how they have theirs routed?

That's kinda the way they go. I have my hard line going up further with maybe a 3" rubber hose going from it to the Weber.
This follows how they were run when they had Strombergs.

I've been looking at images, and saw this later series run it a little further out, but I don't really care for it dangling, and it also has an exhaust manifold in lieu of header, so not really the same..

My brass inlet on my 32/36 is on the opposite side of the one pictured below as well, which complicates things a little more too.

32/36 Webers have the fuel inlet on the right side. That one is a 38/38 which is a completely different carb( they kinda look the same)
than the 32/36. It has the fuel inlet on the right side. I also agree, I don't like the way they have the fuel line run.
Almost looks like it'll get caught up in the fan.
