Default Twin Bosch 044 Advice

I have a 15 gallon fuel cell going in the trunk of my 67 and has twin -8an feeds, I wanted to run twin 044's for my power level and for reliability. What would you guys do as far as "T-ing" these things to a single line going to the fuel rail? Any other recommendations? Thanks in advance fellas!

Tony

use a y fitting like this http://store.summitracing.com/partde...5&autoview=sku and use a regulator after the rails with a return

And filters before the pump and one after.

Right on, appreciate the responses! Had already planned on multiple filters, but was looking for a nice Y and wanted to know if one like the one shown (at summit) was capable of flowing enough. What is the real limitation of a -10an line? I'm sure I'll be able to sustain good fuel pressure with twin 8's going into the 10, but just want to make sure I size it correctly. Thanks again for the posts!

This is interesting me also. I have same pumps and fuelcell but was originally thinking of using Y-block which has 2x -6 and one -8.
044 pump has so small internal passages that -8 feed and -6 pressure should be ok, but is it enough for 1000rwhp FI?

You want to feed your pumps with as big of line as possible for extra volume to not suck the line dry. I keep the MagnaFuel fittings in stock they are a great fitting. The pressure side -8 is plenty it will feed over 1200rwhp anything over 100rwhp I plan on -10 feed to help keep fuel cool.
