took the stock 5/16 line feed and return, put 1/4 to 3/8ths barbs on them and stepped up, china stainless lines to the feed on drivers rail, china crossover, into another china to the china regulator from squeeze performance, then push lock, into stepper barbs back into stock return line lol
works great!

Dude, you're rockin on this one! Girlfriend bought you an engine hoist?! Awesome! My wife is my biggest fan when it comes to garage stuff! She's a gear head at heart. She saw the 4" exhaust pipe laying under the my Nova and thought it was ductwork for the basement!!! I still laugh every time I think about it. Good luck.
