Dual pump fuel line sizing? I have a ls1-swap project which is first going to be na but will eventually be turbocharged. I will use first one bosch 044 pump and when boosted I will add the second one. I will use universal prostreet fuel cell wich has AN8 outlets.
Question is how would you guys size the fuel lines? In boosted mode I'm aiming to 1000fwhp.

Got a little confused cause just got my fittings for 044 pump. was thinking the -8 inlet and -6 outlet would be big enough. When I look through my M12 / -6 outlet adapterfitting, it has only 4mm (5/32") hole in it. Would that really be enough for feeding 500hp per pump???

You want to feed the pumps with as big of line as possible as that is not pressurized. For a 1000rwhp I would do a minimum of -10 we do -12 to the first pre-filter then -8 up to the rails after the second post-filter.
