    Damn, don't I feel cheap. I went to the Autozone and bought rubber hose made for fuel injected engines, hose clamps and a ready made hose connector for a total of about $40 to build my lines. It may not be fancy but it works perfect and has been on the truck since 1998 and has never had a problem. Just don't use conventional hose clamps, they make some with smooth insides to protect the hose.

    By the way what are you guys doing with your old motors. I got this V6 TBI with the 700R that I need to get it rid of (sell). Whats a good price to let it go for. Its got about 200K miles and it ran really good before I pull it out. Any ideas?

    I'd shoot for $500 for the combination.

    Damn, 82 lbs? That's unreal. I am surprised it didn't drown the motor with fuel. 24 lbs over stock is totally not cool. I have seen guys on the dyno back the pressure down 3-4 lbs from stock and gain hp.

    thats what killed my Walbro 255lph pump. i have a feeling if i wouldnt have tested it i would have been doing another fuel pump swap soon.
