Default 1977 C10 5.3 swap fuel set up with stock tank









(1) Spectra fuel sending unit (left tank) part number: FG05M

(1) Russell -6 AN Male to 3/8" SAE Quick-Disconnect Female Push-On EFI Fitting part number: 640853

(6) Russell Black 6-AN Full Flow Hose End part number: 610025

(1) Earl's Aluminum 3-Piece Tubing Adapter: 165056

(1) Russell Anodized Aluminum Fuel Hose Adapter part number: 639210

(1) Russell ProClassic Black Hose 10' part number: 632073

(1) Russell Black ProClassic Hose 6' part number: 632063

(1) Russell Black Competition Fuel Filter part number: 650133

(1) ACDelco EP381 GM Original Equipment Electric Fuel Pump Kit with Seals, Clamp, and Baffle part number: EP381

Still running the 77 fuel tanks but as soon as I order the high pressure fuel switching valve I'll be ordering the 1987 EFI tanks because they have the built in baffle. This set up is the perfect length, the lines and fittings hold pressure really well and it only took about an hour to put together. I just cut the pressure and return lines from the sending unit right after the nipple and there is just enough room for the fittings to go on.

Yeah you dropped that link on my Project DeathTrap thread, it really helped a lot, I searched and searched for reasonable info about people's setups and yours was the best one especially with the pics. I pretty much did the same thing as you except I used quick connects at the rail instead of the threaded retainers.
