Definitely did the fuel lines the best way. The full volume of the pump has to go through the regulator the other way, This way it goes through the rails first, and youre only regulating what's not being used.
Yeah I was surprised when I looked back at video and it was like that. I think I did it that way because it originally had the LS1 intake with truck accessories so capped it behind alternator.
I like that you didn't mount the regulator on the firewall!!! Way too many people do that and it's wrong and dangerous. NHRA prohibits it, for 2 reasons. You don't want fuel lines mounted right on firewall, in case of fire, And you don't want it near the flexplate, if it comes apart.
When plumbing the fuel system could you possibly use the factory ford evap line for the supply line my 04 has a stainless or aluminum? Line that's around 5/8 diameter already in the car
I had planned to feed both rails with -8an and then put the regulator on the front and return the -6 under the intake and come back to the passenger side. Any reasons as this not being the best method?
I used PTFE lines because I knew I wanted to run E85. Have you had success with regular AN lines on E85 systems? Also, I want to redo my lines now based on Brooks Garage's comment, and my car being done a while and me being ready to tinker.
Excited to see this thing going

I used a block of wood in my vise when I made up my lines a few years ago lol
Awesome video as always.
RIVNUT for the win!
Here watching
You betta!

I may be interested in the SD 80# injectors
Enjoying this build. Are you running both pumps together, or one primary, one secondary on a Hobbes switch maybe?
Primary, 2nd controlled by Holley output.

You could.
Great information. Leaving the tape on the AN lines seems to be the trick I was looking for. How much for the deka 80s?
Always good stuff. However, I thought it was not a good idea to have the fuel return too close to the pickup?
Any reason the coils are different left/right? The heatsink coils are sensitive to high dwells.
No, no reason. That's just how it came in.
Those riv nuts are awesome, aren’t they. Are you going to keep just one bolt? Seems like it wants to lean one direction with only one bolt in there.
I dont think it will, especially with the lines attached and fixed into place.
I was thinking the regulator was too high also 😁
Nailed it... lol.

That would work too. Probably better than this if you can fit it.
@Blaser Builds - In my head it seems to be the best solution but then again a lot sounds ideal in my head! Thanks for responding!

I haven't had any issues using regular lines with e85.
Is that thread tape blue monster?
Yes
Fuel system should be good to go
