Re: Aftermarket Fuel Line options

You'll need either -6an or -8an braided line and a fuel rail, stock DSM would work. You'll also need to tap some hole in your manifold for injectors and fab up some mounting holes for the fuel rail. I'm not sure what the Starquests had back then but you'll also need a return line to the tank, -6an is more than adequate for this. Don't forget to put an inline filter before the rail.

I am going to be running the feed line and getting something made so it will go to the stock fuel filter for now, the multi port is still a ways off. I just don't want to spend money fixing the stock line, then take that off to replace it with the bigger line next year, or whenever the MPI happens.

As far as the return line, I guess they are big enough stock to handle pretty much anything until you start getting really extreme, but there can be problems with the capacity of the feed line when you go from 2 injectors to 4.

That is also one of the major draws for me. Braided stainless is cool, and this thing isn't going to be a sleeper, so it's not like I am hiding anything.

What size would you recommend for running 650cc or similar sized injectors??
