I am in the process of installing the Racetronix teflon supply/return lines, 525lph Hellcat pump, and hot wire kit. The tank is dropped and fuel pump installed.
I've removed the small section of factory supply/return lines at the back of the car. The section that starts above the axle and
goes to the pump. I will leave the rest of the factory lines on the car and just cap them to seal them up. Taking them completely out in one piece
would require a lift or else they need to get cut up and removed in pieces.
Does anyone have any tips or pictures on how they routed their Racetronix supply and return lines?
I searched and unfortunately the helpful threads no longer have pictures since the server fire issue.
At the moment I have the Supply line coming off the passenger fuel rail and going straight down the front of the motor behind the turbo. Passenger
side left of water pump.
It then goes along the front of the motor then towards the drivers side frame. Following the factory supply fuel line except it does not enter
the opening in the frame k member.
The return fitting has a 90 degree fitting directly off the fuel regulator. This creates a bit of an extreme bend in the line if
you come off the regulator and go towards the front of the engine following the same path as the factory line.
Instead I came off the regulator and ran it along the top of the intake next to the drivers side injectors towards the firewall. Then down the back off the
motor along the transmission bell housing and over towards the drivers side frame where it meets the supply line. The return line rubs up against where the sheet metal of the firewall meets the floor pan. I took a hammer and pliers and bent that to make a smooth transition to prevent sharp edges from rubbing on the fuel line.
I plan on running both supply and return along the drivers side. Parallel to the factory supply line.
I can't get back to this project for a couple days but hoping those of you who have done this can offer some pictures and advice.
Also where are you mounting the fuel filter? Mike @ full throttle said to mount it on a bracket near the factory fuel pump but I am not sure
which bracket he is referring to. Pump looks like it mounts with 2 silver self tapping screws thru the filter bracket.
