Plumbing my LS

I'm running my fuel lines and was curious if this 10 micron filter was a good choice. I'm running an in tank pump with a return line.

I went with a gf652. It's a delco part and it's used on a ton of cars, so it's available pretty much everywhere

10 micron is good for the post pump filter.

Re: Plumbing my LS

Looks good. If you don't have the AN line cutting tool I recommend using electrical tape and a cutoff wheel. I tried the hammer/sharp chisel method and didn't find that it worked that well at all. I just put a cutoff wheel on my 4.5" grinder and it worked awesome. I ran all AN flex line so had to do a lot of cutting.

Re: Plumbing my LS

Electrical tape and a band saw works well, too.

Make sure no matter how you cut it, you flush the lines out before you run the truck. You don't want all those bits of hose clogging up your injectors or your fuel filter.

Yes, I am flushing out the lines for sure.
