1957 Chevy truck re-rebuild

[jwhotrod]

volume of fuel is dependent on the size of the line not pressure as you said above. the fuel pump will survive longer in the tank not only because of the efficiency of pushing rather than pulling fuel, but also because the fuel in the tank cools the pump motor. my in tank pump in my 35 chevy street rod has lasted 7 years so far where the old inline pumps would fail after 3-4 years. don't use anything smaller than 3/8 (6AN) hose, tube and fittings. also don't use more than 12" of rubber hose in the supply line.
