Basically, i have an appointment to get the cold side tig'd tommorow hopefully and then i have to figure out how to connect the fuel line to the fuel rails lol ( i may run a new feed line, i have all the fittings to do it) and then i have to finish my trans lines (PITA) and then the D/S

Back on topic i tore into my fuel system more tonight and i stared at my fuel bucket for a solid 30 minutes, i have never seen anything like it, they built an entire return fuel system inside the tank and the sock was shoved on with the pump inside the sending unit, there is an actual FPR in the tank with a vacum port and everything













i was quite confused, but on a positive note lol

the racetronix F-Body fuel pump is the exact same size as the stock pump, It drops right in with 0 modification, Now where can i get a longer section of the high pressure hose from the pump to the regulator

What are your plans for the fuel system? You can actually take that regulator apart, and increase you pressure a bit. I turned the torx screw in by a half turn, and increased my pressure to 62. Remember, you should adjust your IFR table to compensate.

my plans for the fuel system for now are the Racetronix Pump lol, but soon i am gonna get a double setup from lonnies with the harness and i am going to convert to return style with bigger feed lines and a regulator, the hose i am currently running for my feed will become my return when i run a -8 feed for the double pumper setup

Just so you know the torx bit for that regulator is a special one, it has a hole drilled into the tip that allows a dowel to fit, but yeah anyways i checked on the snap on truck when he stopped hear so could pay on my tool box and he didnt have them. so i am not sure where to get them either.
