Re: A '54 named Busty
I like B, it seems to fit better. Of course that is only worth what you paid for it though.

Re: A '54 named Busty
Dude you seriously did not need to share. I would have been perfectly fine if you would have kept this all for yourself.

Re: A '54 named Busty
thanks, yes we did, it was rad and much needed, I am now trying to get motivated to walk into the garage and do the fuel plumbing...

Re: A '54 named Busty
and here's a little close up, I got this sending unit with the screw on couplers for a reason so I was not going to cut them off and use the compression AN adapters, it took me a while but I got the right AN adapter that simply screw in, I like this clean setup

Re: A '54 named Busty
and she's in, these sending units come in two different clock positions but this one is good enough for me as long as it fits I can route the steel braided lines accordingly

Re: A '54 named Busty
I swear would it kill 'em to label the return line on this Corvette fuel filter regulator?!?!?! had to find a labeled diagram to run the lines the proper way as it sure aint intuitive at all and the stubs are not long enuff to tell a 3/8ths from a 5/16ths
I know there's an arrow but I took that as directional flow from tank to engine, all I want is a little "R" next to the proper nipple ha ha |

gonna spend most of today cutting up my thumbs whilst attempting to make more steel braided fuel lines, I found some great Fragola brand -6 AN fittings I've ran them in the past so it's just a matter of cutting the lines and putting them on end is in sight!
