Would be interested in what kind of fuel system mod was done. Looking at the firewall shot.

Hmm.... indeed, it would appear in the picture that the right tank is plumbed straight to the firewall gascolator, bypassing the fuel valve

Re: 1959 Tripacer 160
Is that a primer line? Looks like to goes to the cylinders instead of the carb....or maybe you guys are talking about something completely different that I'm not seeing.

I was looking at the back side of firewall cockpit view. If you look down where the fuel line is supposed to come from the fuel valve and then turn to go through firewall, it appears to have second line running diagonal and up toward the right side

Yeah that's not the view I was looking at but maybe it's still a feed line going up to the primer behind the panel...huge one if it is. The firewall engine side view shows a huge line coming out where the heatbox cables are and it seems to go to the priming port on the cylinder.

that line in the engine side of the Firewall could be for the Manifold Pressure gage.

That makes sense as I see a small line going to the cylinder behind and to to other side.
