    Great content. I m actually going to be replacing my hard lines soon too. My tuner recommended 8 an lines as I am looking to make 700 hp on ethanol. I was thinking about cutting the factory fittings to the fuel tank an using bulkhead fittings to connect the fuel lines to a hellcat pump and possibly a second pump. Keep up the great work!

      Making 408 to the wheels now. Stock fuel lines would probably be ok as long as you had an upgraded fuel pump wired to a dedicated relay. If you're looking to go 400+ I would recommend upgrading your lines, that way you can make them e85 rated, running e85 is safer at that power level as well.

    Is it possible to run a QD on the other fitting on the fuel pump? Also since the ChaseBays fuel line kit adapts to the hard line, would I just run the 6AN straight to the fuel filter and then the return line get a barb fitting to use with the existing ChaseBays one? Since I’m running a stock style FPR return.

    • @kraftingkars
      @kraftingkars  2 роки тому +1

      I don't believe you can run a qd fitting on that return barb, the way that line is flared you wouldn't be able to slide a qd fitting all the way on. Yep! Sounds like your plan to run 6an to your fuel filter should work, as long as you have a 6an fuel filter or are able to adapt your own threads.
