Gas Tank Fittings & Lines, want some of them hi-tech AQP deals Options

[3liter914-6]

Hi Folks,

I'm slowly getting my car converted over to SDS efi, and all of the fittings on the hardware I'm using have aeroquip-style connectors. What I would like to do is install a aeroquip connector on the tank and run either braided or the new socketless lines to the back of the car in the same location as the originals.

Does anyone know if the fittings on the tank (70 914-6 if that makes a difference) are a standard size that maybe I could screw an already existing fitting to it? Does anyone know how much room there is for fuel lines where the pass through right now? IE what size O.D. hose can I use?

Any other suggestions for plumbing my fuel lines?

Sorry if I'm asking not too bright questions, I've sort of had this thrust upon me when I decided to go the FI route and I don't really know that much about it.

Thanks!

If you need to weld on your fueltank, fill it with water first

I don't know how many a bug fuel tank I've welded this way, 75...a hundred maybe!?!?

Yeah, I asked my buddy who welds (I'll take a course one of these days), and he said he'd fill it with water and weld it up no problem. The powdercoaters don't really want to do a used tank, so maybe I'll just rattle can it...

Thanks for the tips, and good luck with getting the car dialed in. I'm hoping to get this completed before winter, but it seems unlikely. Still have a lot to do, and then there's still lots of fuel mapping and timing.
