    I would try to relocate them if possible. If not, fabricate a small baffle to shield the lines from the heat.

    I'm within a couple of inches of those lines as well, with as yet no problems - though am not running hood sides and may be keeping them cool enough. Probably a heat shield open at both ends from a piece of 16ga aluminum will be enough.



    The brake line is ~2" just below that fuel line clamped to the boxed frame rail
