fuel pump, filter and some wiring and connector stuff arrived today from RD European Motorsport. thanks very much to the lads there. great service as usual.



fuel pump



filter



pump and filter



bag of wiring, connectors, relays and stuff.

things to order are the fuel lines, some more fuel pipe connections, swirl pot and probably some other stuff.

so basically walbro 255l/h will feed the swirl pot then out into the aeromotive pump. should provide plenty fuel and plenty of pressure etc.

fuel swirl pot on order. has -8 and -6 weld on inlets and outlets etc which is ideal.

pipe and fittings to order once weighed the task up. will need -6 hose and fitting from the walbro to the pot, then -6 return from rail to pot, -6 breather from pot to tank and -8 from pot to pump and -8 from pump to rail. interesting.

Thats the fittings and hose you need in your car Ken. The Nitrile hose smells as the fittings cut into the hose to clamp it. The teflon stuff uses olives like used on brake hose.
