Re: 72 k20 project

I have this box, it sucks the life from my paycheck... haha



pilfering through the box and the online summit catalog and i got some fuel lines worked up









i ditched the OFV for a banjo and some more fragola goodies. you can also see the oil inlet on the IP case down in the hole



used this external FPR instead of the OFV. its an aeromotive unit with boost reference.



being sneaky with an adapter fitting and some brazing i added a brass #4 male end to the injector return line and shot it in before the regulator. that is an important step. if it is tee'd in after the regulator the lift pump has an unregulated outlet to return. makes it impossible to control FP.



obviously you can see i did the double feed on the IP. i also pulled the helicoil out of the stock inlet. that allows for a 16mmx1.5 fitting as opposed to the stock 14mm fitting. the front plug was removed and an 18mmx1.5 adapter fitting is used there. the return uses the stock 14mm/1.5 thread and corresponding banjo bolt/fitting.





Fuel Lines!
