    -8 Line Upgrade

    Got around to upgrading my fuel line today to get my duty cycle in check.

    Prior to the swap my duty cycle was 92% at 6000 RPM stock pumps BAP at 50
    Now my duty cycle is 85% with the BAP on 50 so I will be able to back the BAP down some for street duty.

    Thanks to Jared at Lethal for hooking me up with all the parts.

    I followed the stock fuel line, but used a different filter location.



    15 feet of Fragola -8an Push-Lite Hose (I had about 1 ft left over)
    1- Lethal Performance -8an to Stock Fuel Rail Adapter
    2 -Fragola -8an Straight Push-Lite Race Hose End

    I decided to attach the filter on the passenger side of the car for easy access.

    1 -Aeromotive Billet Fuel Filter (10 Micron Element)
    2 -Fittings for fuel filter
    2 -Fragola -8an Straight Push-Lite Race Hose End

    Lethal provided a quick disconnect that coupled with a -8an union fitting. This allows you to connect to the stock hat in a stock manner.

    Being the filter is in a different location I didn't have to mess with angled hose ends.

    If there is one thing I would do different it would have been a 45 degree hose end at the hat for easier line routing.

    I have a bag in the garage. Those are heavy. Zip ties = quicker ET's.

    Impossible to install in the tunnel when you follow the stock line and the drive shaft is in so the zip ties are there for a while.

    Looks good. To keep everything "stealth" you should have ordered the Russell fuel rail adapter, cheaper too........
