[RESOLVED] steel braided fuel lines

[akira235]

I have a stock fuel pump and filter, but stainless lines, what do I need to buy/do to make this work?

if you have an acual kit, then put the lines on..

i just have the lines... no kit... no adapters of any sort. the person i got the car from included the steel lines, stock pump, stock filter.

You're talking about SS AN lines right?

You'll need a way to connect the line to the fuel pump assembly. You can either weld a bung to the assembly, or get a fitting that connects -6AN line to the stock hardline off the assembly (14mm x 1.5 pitch IIRC avail @ ANplumbing.com)

As for connecting to the stock filter, I don't know

If you already have the stock lines there and connected and the guy just added them as a benefit to the sale just stick with the stock lines, they are good for over 500hp easy.

The easiest thing to do is just like deflator said get a adapter from the 6AN to the 1/4 NPT at the sending unit. Take your fuel filter to a hardware store and find the size of the threads there also. I went with one to accept AN fittings so I'm not sure what the fittings are. Then you can drill and tap your fuel rail to fit an 8AN so you would need a male to male adapter 6AN to 8AN
