Here is how i plan to feed and return fuel also i will be hooking my FPR gauge right at the output of the rail. That is a 120* hose end on the left. I might need a 160*

All those AN fittings seem like overkill at the time but damn don't they make it nice taking things apart and putting it back together I fully intend on running everything I can in With AN fittings and hard lines/compression fittings if I ever build another one. So much cleaner, fewer leaks (none if done right) and it usually lasts a lot longer than regular rubber hose.

Yep. It has been slow due to the heat and lack of motivation.

They are expensive, a PIA and expensive but IMO they are worth it to never have to worry about leaks.

Looks similar to mine, -8an 90 into pass rail and -6an 120 out of drivers rail to regulator. The fragola -6orb/-8an fitting can be drilled out to open it to -8 the whole way FYI.

Good place to ask I suppose, when you are installing an aftermarket crank pulley that uses a woodruff key with the crank, do you insert the key into the crank and press the pulley on so the key slides down the pulley, put it in the pulley then press it on the crank, or tap it in at the end?

What brand and size air filter was on your turbo set up? Are you gonna run same filter with the SC? Any FI setup is a good setup.

I work with big equipment. Much of it uses keyed shafts. I have always found it easier to put the key on the shaft and then press the pulley over it.
