23262, Question regarding dual inlet FPR
Posted by JasonESi_T, May-28-02 05:38 AM
Guys,

I have just bought a dual inlet FPR (for my 8 injector setup), and have a couple of options for hookup, but I wanted some feedback. I was going to use one inlet, of course, for the return line feed. The question is whether I can use the other inlet for the Fuel pressure guage line rather than teeing it off of the other inlet? If so, then I won't have to re-order some different fittings that I'll need for that setup. I'm thinking that it would work just fine this way, but I thought it might be helpful to get some expert opinions.

Thanks!

Off topic but....What are you doing with your vortech FPR? I might be interested in it if you want to sell it. E-mail me at d9e9g@aol.com

Sorry Dave, it's already been sold. It certainly didn't take long at all either, with many inquires afterwards.

Now, let's get me an answer to my question! ;-)

Didn't you get the Aeromotive 13109, same as me? It has a little 1/8" NPT port in the body for a fuel pressure gauge. I mounted my mechanical FPG right at that port and plugged the other inlet with a -06 AN O-ringed plug from Aeroquip. I also flipped the top of the FPR 180 degrees to get the vacuum line pointed in the right direction. It is a symetrical design, so you can flip it with no problems.

You can see that a little bit here:

Damn Corbin, I gotta open my friggin eyes! :-) I just saw that 1/8 NPT inlet. Since it was plugged, I just overlooked it.

Thanks!

I pulled the relays off of their bracket and laid them down next to the strut tower. That gives me alot of room to mount the FPR (no clutch reservoir).
