I'm making a turbo buick hybrid. Right now i'm going to focus on the fuel system. But I need a little help with selection of hose size etc. I plan on using Aeroquip socketless hose and fittings. They're rated at 250psi, anyone have any reason why i shouldn't use this hose? Okay to the questions:
I'm pretty much limited to a repro GN gas tank (which i've heard are crap) or turning a stock G-body gas tank into a sump tank with competition engineering's sump kit or finally a fuel cell.
As far as the pump is concerned. I have a stock GN pickup/pump already. I had planed on using a walbro 340 in-tank pump.
First. I've heard that the return line should be atleast as big, and possibly bigger than the supply line to be able to control the fuel pressure. What return/supply line size would you recommend? Also anyone have any idea how long i would need to go from the fuel tank to the engine compartment? And what side of the frame do the lines run?
Basically, if you were to have designed the original fuel system for the Turbo Regal.. What would it have been? Line size, location, Fuel tank/cell, etc.
Thanks in Advance.
