Default Whats needed to use a -8 feed?

I've got a 99, so no return or regulator....I'm gonna try the dual 255 setup from the sticky at the top of this forum. What would be needed to use -8 from my tank? I've got Edelbrock rails, so -8 will be relatively easy to hook-up there...

Also, if I plan on supporting 800-900 RWHP, is this setup safe, or do I need to convert to return style?

Thanks,

-Will

You will certainly need to convert to a return style. give me a call I can help you out with your setup and the components you will need to make it happen.

I would do a return from the rails, no questions asked. As for running a line from the back, it wouldn't be that hard. Aeromotive sells the push connect hard fuel line fittings that you could use straight off of the top of the tank, and they go straight into -8AN fittings...

I'm keeping my factory hard lines, and running a braided -8AN line from the top of the tank to the fuel filter, stock hard lines to the front of the car, then back to -8 line to the rails. I'll be using the factory evap for the return from the rails when I get to that point, but then again, I'm not looking at as much HP as you.
