you need to either get the svt line with the svt attachment, OR, do what I did, just slowly rotate it forward and zip tie it to the front of the car.
Here is a pic of mine.

but look at the coolant hose where its goona rub through, and the stress markes on the line towrds the coolant hose.... now where did the line blow?? if its the hard line get some 3/8s line and some ends and flair a new line to get rid of that rubber peice.
