Hi Tom, 

The way we did the plumbing in that area on our IV-P was to break it down
into two halves.  Rather than have a line go all the way from the
selector switch back to gear box forward face we used a spare bit of
phenolic & drilled holes in it to accomodate bulk head fittings.
Floxed this to the floor about three inches aft of the spar box.  Then
we did a 2 bid lay-up on it.  But the first thing we did was to use a 
piece of wood with holes in it to get the alignment of the fittings and
the lines.  What we liked about this method was that we weren't damaging
the lines that were installed first.  And we found that out the hard way.
Also if you ever have to take them out in the future there is going to
be a hell of a lot of stuff in there that you didn't have to contend with
when you originally installed the lines.  One other thing, double check
that none of this will interfere with kick panels, etc.  Feel free to
contact me.  Finally, this only the way we did it, it doesn't mean it's
the only way.
