Fuel lines? I know this has been covered before, but I can't seem to find it right now...
98 LS1 is in the car, and I'm ready to run the fuel lines for the supply. This is my plan:
Run a Tanks, Inc. in-tank pump with 255-lph Warlbro pump into either
A) -6AN fuel line to the quick-disconnect fitting on the fuel rail, OR
B) Jeg's 3/8 fuel line to the fuel rail
I will use my stock fuel line as a return, and retain the original sending unit so i can keep a fuel level guage.
Before I start ordering parts, could someone check me and make sure I'm not missing anything somewhere...will the Jeg's lines work just fine, 'cus they'd save some money?...I have a tube bender, so that's no problem.
I don't need ANOTHER in-line fuel pump, do I? Since this is a '98 F-body fuel rail, I DO NOT need the vette fpr/filter, correct? I do plan on running a fuel filter, of course, but I don't need to get that piece...right? I'm kinda a newb to fuel injection, so thanks for being kind and patient.

I have a '99 LS1 in my '67 Chevy II and in trying to keep the stock look I found adaptors from Lingenfelter for the supply and vapor return quick connect lines.These connect to NPT threads which I will then connect to my 3/8" aluminum tubing.
It all depends on what you want the end result to look like!

Just making sure.

A 98 Camaro fuel rail is no different than a 99-02 Camaro fuel rail. You will need an external fuel pressure regulator (either the Corvette filter/regulator or an aftermarket). The only LS1 factory application that had a built in fuel pressure regulator was the 97-98 Corvette. This is easily identified by the dual lines on the fuel rail (1 feed, 1 return).
