Default Filters and Fuel setups

I´m looking for a y fitting to use on a dual 8an outlet Cell,with a 12an fuel lines,is anythin available or doo i need to make it myself?

Another thing,I have a Weldon pump with the 12an in and 10an out,where can i get a filter that supports over 1000hp?

LT1 fuel rails,how much can they really support?

Dual -8AN to single -12AN: Magnafuel MP-6228 (http://www.magnafuel.com/products/ac...ings/index.htm)

Concerning filters, you typically run a 100 micron element filter before the pump and a 10 micron element filter after the pump.

Aeromotive has a new 100 micron -12AN filter with a shut off valve built in that allows for easy element replacement without fuel going everywhere:

Aeromotive 10 micron -10AN filter placed after the pump:

For that much horsepower, you should use 5/8" ID aftermarket fuel rails.

I do not recommend using a 100 micron filter before the Weldon (billet bodied pumps) -- we have clearances of less then .001" within our pump elements. Unless you are very very careful with your fuel handling and you always know the source -- don't use the 100 micron filter element.

I recommend using a 40 micron filter (WEQ1240CLN)before the pump and a 10 (WEQ1010CLN) after, the 10 after is for injector protection. But if you only have room for one filter, be sure its the pre-filter (40 micron) to protect the pump.

Any Questions -- Email me
