Single fuel set up?? Hi new to the site. I'm doing an ls1/t56 in my 64 SS Impala. My question is. Doing a single line fuel set up with a walbro 255, corvette reg. my ls1 has 2 lines 1 at fuel rail and a return. What do I do with the return set up at manifold.and do I need a new fuel rail, the stock 02 ls1 looks like it has a reg in the fuel rails.Thanks Sean

i hate to be an *******, but its extremely difficult to decipher what you wrote and even more difficult do figure out what you want.
are you referring to the fuel rail or the fuel line itself / fuel lines themselves? if the rail, are you trying to tell us that it has two lines going to it: one fuel feed and one fuel return? if yes, then you may have a 1997/1998 C5 Corvette fuel rail. below is a picture from vettenuts.
this is clear as mud, too. is it safe to assume that what you want is what most vehicles out there have? i.e., a single fuel tank, a single feed line and a single return line? (since their discharge can be Y-ed together, the number of pumps is irrelevant in this instance)
which manifold, the intake manifold? that's what initially comes to mind, but i don't know anyone who regularly associates a fuel return with an intake manifold...most people say "at the rail." please confirm.
looks can be deceiving. only the 1997/1998 C5 Corvettes had fuel pressure regulators installed in the fuel rail. please have a look at the picture above.
could you try rewriting your original post? perhaps include details on the car from which you received your donor LS1 parts.

Your 02 rails do NOT have a regulator. Gm calls it a pulsator. We offer a complete kit with everything needed to hook your tank/pump tot he fuel rail. http://www.nastyperformance.com/shop...fuel-line-kit/
Can also give us a call I will help you do custom setup for your needs.

Thanks for the info. 1 last ?. On a corvette fuel filter/regulator. It is not marked nor has an arrow on it, which end is the inlet and outlet. I do know which fitting is the return.
