Fuel lines into the bucket
I just started to put the fuel bucket together. I am using twin walbros and -8an lines. If I just slide the -8an lines over the stock feed out let on the fuel bucket and use a hose clamp, will the pressure blow the line off or will it be fine?
Thanks

The right part is available to do what you want. You need two parts:
Aeromotive 15118
Aeromotive 15607 (this screws in to 15118, and adapts it to -8AN)
Russel also makes the proper quick disconnect (which is 3/8" for feed and return BTW), but it takes -6AN fittings instead.
Don't chance a hose clamp, especially when the right parts are available. The last thing I'd want is the line slipping off and spraying fuel everywhere because I cheaped out.

To me, the bucket is in the tank where the fuel pump lives, but yes, we are talking about the three hard points on the top of the tank where the factory quick disconnect fittings plug in. There are at least two companies (listed above) that make the correct fittings to adapt them to braided lines without the need for hose clamps.
