fuel routing/throttle options

I want to start out with this
I HATE THE way the factory line goes up and across the valves and locks the cover in place.

Now I'm putting a 600 quickfuel(holley) on. I want to run it behind the engine I think? Maybe infront but not sure

Can I get pictures of how you guys with other carburetor ran your lines?

For a while I had a real long piece of hose and zip tied it to the A/C lines running across the top of the firewall. Fuel inlet on an Edelbrock near the A/C plenum so it worked okay. Now I've just got it over top of the valve cover.

I've never had a reason to lift the valve cover in 30 years so I still have the std routing.

I've pulled about six valve covers

Mine twice, I adjusted my valves and then I had it cleaned and a new gasket put on to stop the leak.

My friends adjust the valves, then again to pull it and rebuild the head and then again to adjust them after we got it running.

And I have nice shiney rollers so I want to keep em in spec and show em off

I also kind of pinched the line and have a different fuel pump....off of an older 300( on 60092) has like max psi of 5 more then stock. (35psi)
