    The newer Vettes do not have a traditional fuel filter and neither does harldy anything else these days. They have a primary and secondary FPR in the tank(s).

    There are some early 2000's cars and trucks made for flex fuel that also use the regulator/filter (three pipe connections) filter other than the Vette. Wonder if those would work for a returnless system too?

    Trucks (except for some L59 Z engines) went returnless in 2004 right? The difference is the regulator is in the pump module instead of the filter ('cause they don't even have a filter) on the 04+ trucks. I think I would use what I had too (like Greg suggested) I just wanted to know if there was advantage one versus the other.

    The Vette filters are like $75-80 retail from the dealer but the prices quoted above are great.

    what would it take?

    so what would it take as far as modifications to the fuel rail to convert to a returnless setup? does that mean i would only have to run one line to the rail and not two? also will the rest of my setup be satisfactory (tank, pump, etc)?
    thanks,
    John

    returnless

    i capped my return line on the rail with a quick disconnect fitting and added a mechanical fuel pressure gauge to it.
