Sumping a stock fuel tank

[LS1GMCTruck]

Why didn't you run -8AN all the way to the fuel rail?

I'm wanting to do the same thing but with a fuel cell and the socketless hose mentioned above.

I'm thinking of using a Walbro 255 but I think the hose barb fittings included are 5/16. Would this pump be a bottle neck or should I just replace the 5/16 fittings with 3/8 fittings?

I'll post pics of my setup when I get it finished.

thanks, Kris

-6(3/8") fuel supply line is more than sufficient for over 600 h.p.

good write up... Im doing something similar, just a little more extreme...

here is my custom surge tank... my main tank will fill this one. This will house an aeromotive eliminator and an aermotive fuel filter. -8 and -10 lines in and out of this.

Keep us updated on the install.

I had a problem with the fuel delivery system in my 2003 chevy. I did not opt for the cutting of the tank. I just put a 255gph fuel pump in tank. Then I added a 1 gallon swirl tank under the truck just before the fuel filter. I then put an external 255gph that pushes the fuel through the stock system to the magna charger and back to the swirl tank and then goes back to the fasctory tank through return. No more problems works great. It also keeps the cost in a resonable price range.
