Default questions about v-6 fuel lines

Harlan used the 97-98 vette fuel rails with v-6 fuel lines. How do the v-6 lines tie into the v-8 tank? Do you use any of your v-8 fuel lines? Just trying to see how that was setup.

I'm about to order them so I'll let you know. the best price I have so far on lines rails and regualtor was $262 from gmpartsdirect.com. Does anyone know if Valvegod is still floating around? The only number I could find for him was disconnected.

Harlan's website shows the return line replacing the line that goes into the "T" by the fuel filter, so hopefully it is that easy.

at the tank, they should all plug right in to the plastic lines.

You have to removed the T fitting and shorty return line. Then the feed, return, and evap lines plug right in.

It's not a bad idea to swap the V6 evap line for the one currently on your car. THe engine side ends in a slightly different place for all the lines, but the evap one is in a wierd place if memory serves.

well glad your going to start putting it together
hopefully you didnt get screwed to bad from the insurance co.

you could always pic up a bigger aluminum feed line and use your current feed as the return.
alum. fee lines are pretty cheap, think there listed on speed inc.

Not screwed but they take SO LONG to get everything going. I didn't work at ALL for 2.5 months and then only a limited amount after that for 5 months. Bad thing is my memory....I don't remember lots of little things that I should.

Dirty, I am GUESSING that the v-6 has a return from the intake. If so, they will fit our cars perfectly...I mean as far as molding to the curves and such under the car. Then, all you need is a 97-98 vette fuel rail with the return and regulator built in!

3/8" return, 5/16" return & evap. The evap is indeed funky, as it faces forward. I suppose I'll be bending it so it faces up. I picked up all three lines from a wrecked Camaro for $10. Did anyone ever do this mod? Before finding this thread tonight, I was only going to use the V6 evap as my return, keeping the V8 lines in place, but it now looks like I should try swapping in the entire V6 set. Too bad I didn't get the rest of the feed line (after the filter!)



(old thread, I know!)
