I know I know, hopefully by next week I have most of the big stuff done. I ordered 40feet of fuel line and I have quite a few AN fittings left from my last fuel system that I should hopefully be good to go as soon as it get's here. Wiring I can knock out in a day once I get the correct gauge wire and well...we'll see how it all goes.

-8 AN feed, Y-split and feed the back of the rails. Gonna try to mount the FPR up front right next to the TB so the front of the rails can feed right into it and then go with a -6 AN return. Not sure if I have room for the FPR up there with some of the hot parts, coolant cross-over tubes and what not but I don't want a spider's webb of fuel lines like I had last time.

I feed mine through the front and have the rear of the rails feeding the regulator on the firewall.

Hey do you guys use those tiny gaskets on the coolant cross-over tubes? I just bolted mine down and then took a peak in my Gm manual and they showed a picture of this little gasket. I've never used them, not on my last build or the one before that but I would imagine it's kinda important but I've never had any issues running without them.

Damn Jules. Don't know how I missed this thread til now. Just read thru all 7 pages. The build looks badass, truck is going to be beast when finished.

Always liked it and the Warthog theme seems fitting, lol.
