Default Fuel system plumbing with a returnless system
2000 LS1 motor with single fuel inlet. We have a modified fuel tank from Rock Valley that has 1/4 NPT going in and going out. Does anyone make a rear mounted regulator system to that can be used so we can retain the stock one line to the rail?

Use the Corvette filer with integrated FPR. Or just mount an Aeromotivve, or whatever FPR you like in the rear.

corvette fuel filter has regulator built in. I used plastic line from tank to fuel filter and fuel filter to engine. Works great, looks good and easy to work with. Cheap too.

Ok so thats a stock filter assembly that has two lines out one side for regulation and the one that feeds to the rails? How are you connecting the steel braided line to the assembly?

Thanks guys!

On the inlet and return, I'm using the Russell quick-connect to AN adapters. They don't fit very vell, btw. Some people use compression fittings. On the outlet, I used a Dorman tube and a compression union to connect to a shortened/bent reproduction 3/8" stainless hard line. I think the Russell and Dorman part #'s are in one of the stickies.

We've done the Vette filter/Russell fittings on several setups. It works well.

We make that tube here. That allows for a full quick disconnect system with no compression fittings.
