Hi all,
Looking for a little advice here. Replacing an old fuel tank on my truck. Got the tank out by removing the rear bracket and sliding the tank back and down. I haven't installed the new tank yet and can still return it. Anyways, was planning on sticking with the 5/16" fuel line but noticed another tank online has a 3/8" pickup tube. Considering going with PTFE 3/8" fuel line as it would be easier to run. Hopefully there's room between the floor and the tank as it already looked tight with the 5/16". Has anyone removed the 5/16" line and put in a pre-formed line 3/8" line on these trucks? Not sure if there's any 3/8" pre-formed line for my truck. It looks tough to remove and/or install. I also had a suspension guy box in a small section of the front frame to solidify a semi-shoddy Volare clip install. That looks to make it even more challenging. I have a 352 fe in with edelbrock 4 barrel and plan on putting in headers and electronic ignition. Thinking 5/16" should be fine for my application? Also if I ever look at adding more HP somehow including different engine, I will have the bigger line in place. I bought an edelbrock mechanical fuel pump that's going in. Everything is disconnected and I really don't want to mess with fuel delivery again. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Forgot to mention, the engine was rebuilt not too many miles ago and an RV cam was added.
