<p>Standard fuel line adapters. I think we got them at NAPA? Baxter before that? He was using rubber hose.</p>

Yeah but that's no fun, I can get all that stuff locally. If I don't order it online I won't have an excuse for continued delays

My hangup is that I'm worried about pushing like 80~90psi through the stock style push-on fittings (because 1:1FPR) and having one blow off at the pump somewhere on the high pressure feed side. I may do AN on the feed side and push-on for the return, but we'll see.

<p>I just searched around and can't find anything about pressure ratings. You're return line should not be under pressure though.</p><p>If anything, be worried about the fuel line to rail connection. Don't you have a dual feed rail?</p>

Right, that's why I said push-on would probably be fine.

Right, that's why I was talking about making -6 lines for the pressure side.

Yes, but I don't HAVE TO use it in that configuration.



As you can see, lots of ways to plumb one of these things.

Ed's more baller than the rest of us, he's getting **** done rather than just talking about it.

Helluva weld.
<br />
<br />Here's hoping the dimensions don't cause steering column issues. Sticks out a long way it looks like. Will figure it out. Looks great though!!

It shouldn't be an issue I hope. The pan was pretty contaminated so there is quite a bit of filler lol. It looks like it should hold real well.

When archeologists excavate your car in 3000 years, that weld will be the best preserved part -- maybe the only thing left. Haha.

Done with the new welder I assume?
