Re: Help with fuel system design for LS1 install

yes....get the wrenches...with 2 of the -6 and -8 AN or whatever fittings you use most. Had to install and remove some AN fittings several times and only had 1 set of AN wrenches, so if I needed two -8AN wrenches to put something together I had to use a small crescent for one side. You'd be amazed at how fast those fittings scar up when using the wrong wrench.
