Making progress on rust or ation on #269

Considering future proofing my project....

Currently the plan is to put the 2.2MFI back in the car, but was wondering


What size of fuel lines do i need for putting a 3.6/3.2 in sometime in the future?

Makes no sense of threading fuel lines twice...

Thanks

3/8" supply (8-9 mm)
5/16" return (7-8 mm)

I using the stainless lines from CFR. Not sure about the size, but they seem to work just fine ...

My 3.2 uses CFR's stainless lines, which I think are stock diameter, no issues.

DITTO on the above. I use CFR stainless steel on my 3.2 Sixer

I'm using 8 & 9.5 mm lines for an LS1 V-8, and no issues.

I'm using -8 line from the tank bottom to the front mounted pump. From there it's 3/8'' stainless lines I formed for the supply back to the engine. Finally I
cut down to 5/16'' stainless line at the return.

5 years now, no problems.

I'm using -8AN for the supply line and -6AN for the return. -8AN was the closest to the stock supply ID.

Good luck

Not familiar with CFR lines. Will look them up

I had not planned on going with a braided line as I've got pans to install.


Figured I'd use double wall tubing 3/8-5/16 and either flared or compression fittings.


Thanks for all your imput biggrin.gif
