is -8 recommended from fuel tank to fuel pump on my 3dr?

 

on mine i have -10 tank to pump

half of the reasoning might be because the aeromotive pump im running is soo bloming big

 

ill be changing to a 044 pump if thats any help.

 

anyone else?

 

if i can remember im running 8mm braided from tank to engine if i can remember right on a 044 pump

 

8mm I.D. ?

 

-10 on my Saff iirc.

If you use a goodridge adaptor remember to drill the bore bigger as it steps down quite a lot.

 

yea 8mm i.d

 

dan was going to weld a -8 or -10 fitting to the tank and wandered which size most people use

 

Sorry phone would let me reply yesterday

-10 goes straight onto the orig outlet on the tank

 

Im running TWO -8 lines from my tank to TWO Bosch 044's

Hope that helps

 

measure the metal pipe off the tank today its 15mm i.d. i guess -10 would be better but struggling to find -10 teflon fittings

 

I'm running -8 (1/2" bore) from tank to 044 pump, then -6 (3/8" bore) from pump to rail.

 

that was going to be my first choice mate but using -8 teflon hose reduces the hose size down by 4mm does this matter?-8 would be the easy option as i would have no problem getting the hose and fittings.or i could just go with the original push on hose and just use -6 fittings for the return.

 

i would use -10 hose .i get all my gear from think automotive.
this is for convoluted teflon hose.

-10 it is then cheers guys.

 

Ive Earls adaptors going into my pumps. They are incredibly small too, I drilled them out as much as possible.

I'm using -8 into the pumps
