looks great and clean but looks like you are going to use the stock hard lines, are all your SS line -6.

looks very nice. Thanks for posting the pics. I was thinking of routing my lines that way with the rat's nets. However, after seeing your pictures I don't think it's posible. Thanks for saving me some work

I'm running the SS -6 to the firewall. From there back to the tank it remains stock. If I can ever afford it, I'll replace that too.

No prob. You're right though... I think it would be a bit tricky with the rat's nest in there.

I split the fuel prior to entering either rail (Using a Y), allowing me to run in Parallel vs Series. This seams to really help the transition of the 1600's at lower speeds. The fuel goes through each rail and out the other side (Front of engine). From there I run it back to both sides of the FPR which I mounted where the Cruise Controls are. I just did mine a little different. You may want to rethink the line coming out of the secondary into the FPR. This is where the Turbo would be mounted and will heat the line. You want the fuel as cool as possible to help atomization.

Thanks! Took me about a day 1/2. Did some goofing off.. LOL

I bought everything from rxrotary2_7 for 675.00 minus the pump. I got that elsewhere for ~200.00

I did it myself so there isn't a labor cost... Just about 20.00 for beer!

Keith tapped it for me. Just a special drill bit that cuts the threads. I suck at it, so I had it done when he put everything else together..

that price included all lines and fittings preassembled and modifying the primary rail.

I don't believe the PMS will support larger injectors..

However, I heard somewhere that it'll work as long as the difference between the 2 sizes remains 300cc.. For example going to 850cc primaries and 1150 secondaries... Don't remember where I heard that... Might be crap but who knows..

This is about all there is to see except the Y in the rear which I can take a picture of tomorrow if you want. Basically it comes in on the fuel in hard pipe. Goes down the back of the engine on the firewall and splits into a Y. One got to the secondary the other to the primary. Comes out the engine side and exits through 120 bends. I route over to the two hard pipes that go under the ignition and connect to the other side directly under the Greddy elbow. I then connect to both sides of the FPR. Going out the bottom of the regulator to the fuel return. One word of caution. The FPR adaptor for 6an is very long and comes very close to the end of the FPR block. I shaved off about 3/16ths to add more flow. This was true with both sides. After shaving off the excess the fuel flowed very nicely.

I played with alot of fuel setups before ending up with what I have. If you have any questions let me know.

Chris
