When I ran mine went and got some thin aluminum sheet metal that I cut into 1" wide probably 6" long strips. I then covered them with marine grade heatshrink to keep them from hurting the hose although I was using braided steel hose so it would take a while if it did damage it. After that every 2 foot or so I drilled a hole in the floor following the stock lines, wrapped the strips around the hoses but made it so they are about 1/2" apart from each other because of the shape of the strap. I then drilled a hole through the top/bottom of the strap and used rivits then to go through both sides of the strap and then through the floor to hold it in place.
