102602, Fuel system question.
Posted by 2GeclipseRS, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
1. can i use brand new ss braided lines from ebay? They're inexpensive and come with fittings.

2. To a 12:1 fmu say from blox racing or obx, what fittings, sizes (in fractions of an inch) of ss line and how many feet will i need to order to complete the full fuel feed and return replacement.

3. Thanks for putting up with me being a post whore lateley. The search hasn't been helping much and i'm oh so eager to see boost this year.

1. I dont know if I would trust ebay lines man. I would get some good stuff from Summit or Jegs. Even Summit carries their own line of braided hose, and its fairly inexpensive man.

2. Your probably going to be using around 20ft of line. I would suggest getting about 22ft to be safe. For fittings, your probably going to use -6 fittings, if thats what your asking.

3. Sure, no problem. But if your going to boost it, do it the right the way the first time or else you will regret it. TRUST ME.

The Summit brand hose is not the greatest IMO. The 6an was almost as big as an 8an.... and the quality was not as good as their name brands. But I agree about getting it from Summit or Jegs instead of Egay. Like Mike said, do it the right way the first time.... Spend the extra 10 - 20 bucks.
